An exciting new development from Bookshop.org UK
They have now expanded their offer to include ebooks, allowing readers to enjoy books in a wider variety of formats while continuing to support independent bookshops.
So how does it work?
📘 Ebooks can be purchased directly via their website
📘 Titles are accessible through their browser reader or dedicated iOS and Android apps
📘 A share of every sale goes directly to independent bookshops, with over 80% of profit margin passed on to the trade.
This initiative represents a huge change for the book industry. It's taking digital reading habits (which continue to soar) and aligning them with the sustainability of the independent bookselling sector.
By introducing ebooks, Bookshop.org is ensuring that local bookshops remain part of the digital economy.
It’s definitely a positive development for readers, publishers and booksellers alike.
