Your bookstore deserves a website that actually works.
Custom-built sites for independent bookshops — from a simple, beautiful presence to a full-featured platform. No templates. No lock-in. You own everything.
To Be Read (formerly Clackamas Book Exchange) is a beloved used bookstore in Milwaukie, Oregon. We designed and built their entire digital presence — from the AI-powered book matchmaker to the trade-in credit estimator, local SEO engine, and community event tools.
1Commerce LLC is a registered Oregon business. Real contracts. Real invoices. Real support.
