It's the last Saturday before Christmas, and it's a busy one for everybody. I wanted to take time to thank everyone who's signed our petition. If you don't know about the petition. You can find it here.
The situation is that our landlord isn't renewing our lease, which expires March 31, 2015. Wellsboro and Tioga County need a bookstore, and if you are familiar with the area, there just isn't anywhere to go. We moved to this location almost three years ago, and had to take out a second mortgage to finance the move.
Our landlord has his reasons, but they are stated to make him not look like he's being vengeful. Now, the landlord doesn't have a legal obligation, though we have always paid our rent and always paid on time. If you check the petition, you'll see names from all over Pennsylvania, the United States, and even Europe. We have several international visitors a year, and it's not unusual to hear a little French, or German being spoken, and last week we had a friendly Aussie visiting(is there any other kind?)
So, if you haven't signed, it just takes 20 seconds. If you'd like to make a little more effort, drop a letter to the landlord at LYDA LLC, PO Box 246 Wellsboro PA 16901, or write a letter to the editor of your local paper, or just keep supporting us with buying books. If you have signed, thank you we all appreciate it.
