National book chain Borders declared bankruptcy today, and will close about 200 of its branches across the country. The Wall Street Journal has the complete list of Borders which will be closing, including two in the District of Columbia (1801 K Street NW and 5333 Wisconsin Avenue NW) and outlets in Kensington, Largo, Bowie and Woodbridge. Stores at Pentagon City, Baileys Crossroads, Silver Spring and Vienna will remain open. (Whoops! The Vienna location will also be closing.)

According to the Associated Press, clearance sales at Borders scheduled will be shuttered will begin as soon as this weekend — so if you were planning on making a bulk book purchase, you might want to hold off for a few days.
