The late Joe W. Bratcher III, founder of Malvern Books. Management has announced that the store will close permanently on Dec. 31.

Garcia went on to thank all book lovers who have made Malvern Books a unique part of the Austin literary scene, noting,"It has been a wonderful nine years and we thank each and every one of our cherished customers, friends, staff, and suppliers for helping us along the way." She encouraged bibliophiles to keep an eye out for information on sales and specials, and to keep supporting other independent book stores and small press imprints."There is so much great stuff out there.
