The San Diego Book Crawl is an annual, multi-day event bringing together eleven of the region's independent bookstores, including Libélula Books and Co., a new Barrio Logan shop.
"It's about these great public institutions that have been around for many years that we sort of take for granted now. So parks, libraries specifically, since I work at the Library Shop that's something that I'm super passionate about, obviously. And the library is sort of the last place in our society now where we can all come together from different walks of life, different perspectives, and be able to have a safe conversation with each other," Ehrig-Burgess said.
Gutierrez worked as a literacy and art integration educator in Barrio Logan for seven years prior to opening the store, and first dreamed up Libélula Books primarily as a place for their students to go after school. But it mostly comes down to loving books. Libélula declares itself a"Queer IPOC/Felonista-owned" bookstore, putting inclusivity first and foremost in their store's identity. For Gutierrez, it's a no-brainer.
