Not sure how to handle this (as I don't represent this bookstore) but the Amazon Bookstore Cooperative in Minneapolis ("the oldest independent feminist bookstore in North America") is now called True Colors Bookstore . . . (same great store, new management . . . terms of their lawsuit with amazon.com required name change if sold).
Their website has also changed: http://www.truecolorsbookstore.com/ (but the old url redirects to the new)

Most/many people will still search for it/refer to it by the old name, but perhaps a note should be added to the listing in Local (or some such). I don't think it would be good to replace the current listing, just not sure how to clarify the new name info.

Thoughts??
P.S. I see their listing says "not contacted" but don't exactly know what that means . . . is there a formal process? Or is it a matter of me walking in there and saying "let me tell you about LibraryThing"? :)

Just amend it to "True Colors Bookstore (formerly Amazon Bookstore Cooperative)" so that it will show up under either in searches but the distinction is clear.

I've gone and done it for you. :)
