<title>Longfellow Books in Maine Damaged by Blizzard</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-65230" title="149563_459453315783_2434680_n" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/files/2013/02/149563_459453315783_2434680_n-300x117.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="117" />Maine&#8217;s Longfellow Books received &#8220;<a href="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151298766975784&amp;set=a.467548430783.251609.302214970783&amp;type=1" target="_blank">serious water damage</a>&#8221; during the blizzard last weekend. The bookstore will be closed as they recover from the damage, but c0-owner <strong>Chris Bowe</strong> said there was one way to help: &#8220;<a href="http://www.pressherald.com/life/how-to-help-longfellow_-buy-books_2013-02-12.html" target="_blank">Support us by buying books</a>.&#8221;</p>
<p>Even though the bookstore is closed, you can still support them by <a href="http://www.longfellowbooks.com/browse/kobo" target="_blank">buying eBooks through the store&#8217;s partnership with Kobo</a>. The store is one of the many independent bookstores that now sells eBooks through Kobo. Check out our <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/galleycat/how-to-buy-ebooks-at-your-favorite-bookstore_b63671" target="_blank">How To Buy eBooks from Your Favorite Indie Bookstore</a> for more details.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pressherald.com/life/how-to-help-longfellow_-buy-books_2013-02-12.html" target="_blank"><em>The Portland Press Herald</em> had more details</a>: &#8220;Maine writers offered help, support and sympathy to the independent bookstore, where as many as half of the 30,000 titles were damaged when this weekend&#8217;s blizzard pushed in a second-story window and caused pipes to freeze and burst overhead.&#8221; (Via <a href="http://www.twitter.com/PublishersWkly" target="_blank">Publishers Weekly</a>)</p>
