Amazon's bookstore at Washington Square: Exclusive sneak peek - The Oregonian/OregonLive

Panzer was tootling around in the Catosphere when he heard clapping and shouting. Following the hullabaloo took our adventuresome kitty to The Oregonian/OregonLive site. There he discovered the source of the excitement was the opening of the new Amazon store in Oregon.

There is access to Amazon online.

According to the post by Anna Marum, Amazon's newest bricks and mortar bookstore is opening in Tigard, Oregon. There was a mini-opening of the bookstore on October 22, but the official opening is on October 25 (today). With only 7,800 square feet the store will have 5,200 physical books. Books at the store have to have received a 4 star or higher rating at the Amazon online site. The store also sells Kindles, Echoes and other devices.

Panzer says, "That's a small bookstore with not many books."
