Water Damage Sends Northshire Events to Public Library

SARATOGA SPRINGS — After a water leak in an upstairs apartment on July 4th caused significant water damage to the Northshire Bookstore on Broadway, the business has temporarily closed and moved all of its remaining July events to the Saratoga Springs Public Library. 

In a statement, Northshire said that news of the flood generated “an overwhelmingly generous community response, with numerous individuals, businesses, and organizations reaching out to the Northshire staff to ask how they could help.”

“As a longtime partner in promoting books and reading, we’re happy to be able to provide our friends at Northshire a venue for co-hosting several of their upcoming author visits in their hour of need,” said library director Ike Pulver.

Schedule of Northshire events at the library:

  • Thursday July 17 at 6 p.m.: Clémence Michallon – Our Last Resort – in conversation with Rachel Person
  • Saturday, July 19 at 2 p.m.: Saratoga: America’s Turning Point 250th Commission and Anne Clothier – Overhearing History
  • Wednesday July 23 at 6 p.m.: Jacqueline Boulden – Lies Lost and Found
  • Thursday, July 31 at 6 p.m.: Representative Chris Gibson – The Spirit of Philadelphia: A Call to Recover the Founding Principles – in conversation with Ray O’Conor
