"It's pretty remarkable to consider this core business on Main Street, Nantucket, has been in steady operation for fifty years.That means generations of Nantucket residents and visitors have streamed through the doors of Mitchell's Book Corner, returning decade after decade to find that perfect book that will enrich their lives, their thoughts, and imaginations.  

Times do change, especially with new technologies, but some experiences are treasured by every generation, and personal relationships in small scale enterprises are universally understood and appreciated. That's why I invested in the Mitchell's building for the 21st century, both in its LEED certified renovation, and in the people, like Wendy Hudson, who operate the business because they share our love of books." 

  -Wendy Schmidt, founder of reMain Nantucket &
President of  The Schmidt Family Foundation
