BELOIT – The Rogue Bookstore, which is closing in on its first anniversary in downtown Beloit, is one of two Stateline Area bookstores included in the ninth annual Midwest Independent Bookstore Roadmap.


On Saturday, the Midwest Independent Booksellers Association will pick a winner in a drawing from photos posted on Instagram of shoppers outside the participating bookstores. One lucky winner will receive a $500 gift card. The more stores visited and photos posted, the better the odds of winning.
