The ongoing Covid situation has affected local small businesses and many are struggling to stay open. In an effort to help those small businesses survive, we are featuring them in a segment we call #SmallBusinessShoutout!
Today we'd like to introduce you to Vroman's Bookstore, with two locations in Pasadena. Assistant Promotions Director Gilbert Martinez joins Gary and Shannon to discuss this Pasadena landmark.
