This Kickstarter will support us paying our dedicated staff for all the extra hours and training, buy coffee equipment, and moving books into the new space. We can't wait to share it with you! We promise we will return what you give us tenfold to our community. We love you all so much! Thank you for making TAB bigger than we ever dreamed!
