Livrarias independentes no Porto

: estratégias e resiliência

Abstract

Despite growing awareness of the importance of independent bookstores in the social and cultural landscape of cities, there are still few academic works that address this issue. This dissertation addresses the topic of independent bookstores in the city of Porto: what they are, how they define themselves, the positive impact they have on their community and the challenges they face on a daily basis. This study is based on a review of existing literature on the topic and first-hand accounts from booksellers.
