Atlantic News is a locally-owned business that offers hundreds (thousands?) of titles.
According to Atlantic News' website, the business first opened its doors in September 1973. Bunny Scheffman closed the Downtown Book Store on Argyle St and Pat Doherty welcomed the customers to the corner of Morris & Queen St. Atlantic News was a real family affair with Pat's father, brother, sister and his wife Onough all working at the store. Pat died suddenly in 1991 and Onough continued on. Stephen and Michele bought Atlantic News from Onough on January 1st 1998 after having worked for Onough and her second husband for 5 years.
