Hi! I am not in which part of the state you live, but Kentucky does indeed have a Jewish population. You might find this helpful. They have collected nearly 100 interviews. - Jewish Kentucky Oral History Project
Though bookstores in general are more difficult to find these days, all the ones I visit have a small Jewish section. We also have a great library system (rated on of the best in the country) so I can get a lot of books at my public library. Synagogues too, often have libraries where we can check out books on Jewish topics. My synagogue library is TINY (we lack space) but there are others in the area with vast collections that are open to the public.
