Powell's CEO Emily Powell said in a community message "Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for your incredible and unwavering support. Your kind words, messages of encouragement, ideas for perseverance, and orders for books have taken our breath away.
Powell said that orders may be slow as they take the necessary precautions to keep everyone healthy.
Powell's also said that while they don't know what the future holds, they will keep fulfilling orders and keep their booksellers employed and on health insurance.
We are still taking online orders and shipping packages. There have been some minor delays, but nothing newsworthy so far. As things go on, delays may become longer due to factors beyond our control, but that's the new normal, at least for now.
