The closure of all of Borders' 399 bookstores nationwide -- including 18 in Maryland -- is not only a dramatic illustration of the changing publishing industry, experts said Tuesday, but also reveals the delicate relationship between large companies facing industry-specific problems and the commercial real estate market.
