Three-quarters of bookshop customers intend to sustain their spending on books over the next 12 months, despite the cost of living, a new report published by the Booksellers Association and Nielsen has found.
The report, Counting the costs: how the cost crisis is affecting bookshops, saw 1,000 bookshop customers polled in September, collecting data on how the cost of living crisis is expected to impact spending habits in bookshops over the next 12 months. It has been published just ahead of Bookshop Day (8th October).
