Just want to point out that Milwaukee has a great selection of physical indie table top rpgs at Board Game Barrister.

And soon we'll also have a physical Tabletop Bookshelf location. We're pretty spoiled here.

Zenodot — Find book translations across languages Discover book translations across languages. A documentary tool for readers worldwide.

Turns out no one tracks this. Not ISBN registries. Not Amazon. Not Google. Not libraries.
So I built a tool that crosses four databases to piece it together.
