Message: From GoLocalProv by Don Roach, GoLocalProv MINDSETTER™: I visited Borders bookstore in Cranston’s Garden City Center (GCC) this past weekend. Earlier this year, this bookstore was saved from closure when Borders was able to negotiate a new lease for the store. Unfortunately, GoLocal reported Monday that Borders is going to liquidate all of their stores in Rhode Island. From an economic standpoint this is completely understandable. Places such as amazon.com have much less overhead and offer even more variety of books and other items than you’d find in a book store. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/borders-closing-why-we-need-the-amazon-tax
