Just a few book related finds to share this week:

Some interesting predictions from 1962 about what the book industry would be like in the 21st century. Some are pretty accurate, but some....well, let's just say that microfilm and speed reading haven't quite caught on as planned.
One of my favorite Etsy artists has opened a new shop that pays tribute to late 80's/ early 90's book loving nostalgia. (Remember Scholastic book fairs and Pizza Hut's Book It program?) Very cute!
And my jaw dropped when I found out about The Literary Gift Company. I've barely scratched the surface of exploring what they have, but it seems like the place to find a little gift for a bibliophile.
