February 01, 2005: Ohio: Another Independent Bookstore Closes Shop (Thackeray's)
"Thackeray's Books, a popular West Toledo independent bookseller for nearly 22 years, will close its doors in May, a victim of expanding competition and rising costs."
"One of the competitors contributing to the retailer's demise is Ann Arbor's Borders Group Inc., which will open a book and music superstore at about the same time in nearby Westfield Shoppingtown Franklin Park."
