Independent Bookstore Day is a national celebration held annually on the last Saturday of April to honor and support independent bookstores across the country. This year, Loyalty Bookstores in Washington D.C. is pulling out all the stops to make it a memorable event for book lovers. On Saturday, April 27th, both Loyalty Bookstores locations will offer a 10% discount storewide and online with the coupon code "LBIBD24". Customers who make an in-store purchase of $50 or more will receive a free tote bag, and they can also participate in a "Blind Date with a Book" promotion.

Loyalty Bookstores will provide maps starting April 1st, or customers can print them out. Delicious treats and drinks will be available while supplies last. Exclusive Independent Bookstore Day merchandise will be on sale both in-store and online. The highlight of the event is the DC Bookstore Crawl, which encourages book lovers to explore the diverse independent bookstores in the local community. Those who visit all nineteen participating stores can enter a raffle for the grand prize – an "Audiobooks for a Year" gift certificate from Libro.fm.
