MISHAWAKA, Ind. — A local bookstore that was started by two Notre Dame students celebrated its 10 year anniversary Friday.
Over the years Better Wold Books in Mishawaka has gone from a start up to a $64 million company.
They've raised $14 million for libraries and donated more than 8 million books.
ABC 57's Keitha Nelson emceed the anniversary celebration Friday morning.
Organizers say this is a true local success story.
"I think it is all about entrepreneurship, innovation, that you can do anything if you believe it. That has to manifest itself in some way."
Better World Books also ships books ordered on its website free of shipping costs.
