Borders.GIFToday AnnArbor.com broke the news that Borders Group had cut more employees at the bookseller’s corporate headquarters in Michigan. A spokesperson declined to say how many people were laid off.

The company provided this statement: “we have made changes to our staffing levels so that the right people are in the right positions and that those positions are aligned with our strategic objectives.”

Earlier this month, we noted that Borders will cut another 100 workers in its distribution facility located in La Vergne, Tennessee. When asked about those cuts, the company provided the same statement.
