Just saw this mentioned in Shelf Awareness, a bookseller's newsletter.

"News about Avol's plans to merge with A Room of One's Own has leaked to the media, so I'm confirming the news, albeit sooner than I had planned. Room will take over our space effective 8-1-2012. Avol's will no longer operate as a stand alone retail store, but will sell used books on consignment through Room. I will function as the used book buyer within Room and will continue to operate Avol's on-line business. I'm very excited about this new venture and believe that Room, under this new configuration, will be able to continue to prosper in what has become an increasingly challenging environment for independent bookstores."
