Melbourne’s TS Bookshop situation: an important update

The last day of trading of the iconic and unique TS Bookshop is this coming Friday. It’s a travesty. You can read more about it in the online petition (linked later) and in my previous posts:
Help save the iconic TS Bookshop and Library. Both now to close August 13th. Urgent help needed!
Help save the iconic TS Bookshop in Melbourne!
However, while the Theosophical Society has finally confirmed (after weeks of unclear communication) that it is making all staff redundant and planning to merge the TS Library and Bookshop, it’s still not too late to let the board know you’re unhappy about this. This merger will be the end of the bookshop as we know it.
Bookshops and libraries are significant places of learning, knowledge, culture and socialising. The TS Bookshop is a very specialised shop and has the best range of esoteric books and spiritual items in Australia. It has been around for a century, which is an amazing achievement in itself. Even if you’re not from Melbourne, or Australia, please sign. You can read the latest update as well as sign and share the petition here:

You can also write to the President of the Theosophical Society at the following email address, and let them know you are unhappy with the merger and staff redundancies here:
