The Survival Rules of Independent Bookstores: Community, Curation, and Convening


独立书店的生存法则:社区、策展和号召


Yubin Mai


Abstract: Independent bookstores are the nostalgia of many paper book enthusiasts, meeting the personalized book-buying needs of nearby readers and contributing cultural and economic value to the local community. However, independent bookstores are currently not only facing the impact of online bookstores and large chain bookstores but also facing pressure from ultra-low profits, rising rent, and employee salaries. The survival of independent bookstores has become a complex problem that bookstore owners are pondering: how can independent bookstores survive in competition? What is its future direction? What should be done specifically?


Key words: independent bookstores; community; curation; convening
