Local bookshop site.

The much requested and long awaited local bookstore site is slowly being rolling out for Australian stores.

The idea is to give book buyers a single place to find who has the book they want and then connect them to a local shop that has it.

Currently there are over 400k different titles on shelves in Circle stores in Australia. This provides an answer to Amazon and helps people buy local (or not have to wait to have a book shipped around the world).

Book buyers will be able to find all that books they want locally and I think get a better service at the same time.
