Borders

After some phone tag and swapping e-mails I am hoping to interview someone at the south or north location. This bookstore has a music section and holds community events. We are kind of hitting up against a wall with this group. I e-mailed and then talked face to face with a person who has lead discussions on "How to place music at Borders". It's not going well trying to get an interview with these folks.
