Janet North One of the owners of Westminster Books, Janet is also the store manager. She oversees the busy store with the help of several staff members.

Norine McGinn Norine McGinn is a full time bookseller, our children's book expert, and fellow book lover for almost 7 years. Being the mother of three it certainly keeps her busy but there is always time for reading! Besides being great with the customers and knowing the kids books inside and out, she facilitates our store Book-Club and handles the ordering of the Children's, 8-12 and Young adult titles! But she's not just only into kids books, she has a wide range of interest and her staff picks are always great reads!
