Printer-friendly versionIn the story entitled "ABA to Independents: Let's Be Counted" (March 18, 2003), BTW incorrectly reported on Nielsen BookScan data. BookScan reporting data does not represent between 70 and 80 percent of the independent bookstore market. Its data represents between 70 and 75 percent of the entire bookselling market.
The American Booksellers Association, a national not-for-profit trade organization, works with booksellers and industry partners to ensure the success and profitability of independently owned book retailers, and to assist in expanding the community of the book.
Independent bookstores act as community anchors; they serve a unique role in promoting the open exchange of ideas, enriching the cultural life of communities, and creating economically vibrant neighborhoods.
