Is today #PrimeDay at a certain billionaire's online retail store—the one that acts as if it was modeled after the evil corporations in Science Fiction dystopias?

Well, it's also a sales day at Bookshop.org, which is a website that was created to help independent booksellers resist in the USA and UK.

Both today and tomorrow, July 12, Bookshop.org is offering free shipping on orders of physical books. Additionally, a free tote bag will be provided for purchases above $100. This seems to apply to purchases of CDs and pre-recorded players, as well.

To shop, choose your favorite online #Bookshop seller or the general site (linked below) so that a portion of sales is split up among independent stores.

"Deals" on Kindles may seem attractive, but don't forget Amazon is one of the most devoted peddlers of DRM. We prefer books we can loan to our friends, free of restriction and prying eyes. #PrimeDay #DRM
