I'm in Canada, so options available in Canada are especially appreciated.

Are there any local bookstores near you still? I’m an American and we still have a few Barnes & Noble around, but there’s also at least one independent local bookstore that has a decent selection of new titles and can order most other titles currently available from publishers. They regularly have events with authors on tour, so that could be a way to find a store near you.

Yeah but they don't have the Robinson Jeffers book I'm looking for.

Can they not order it through their contacts?
