Subject area: Management and Commerce · Area of research: E-Commerce
Abstract
In the face of economic crisis due to pandemic, bookstores all over the country are experiencing an ambiguous and unquestionably challenging fate. Since the current pandemic is still menacing to take everything to halt and foot traffic is still low due to prevailing community quarantine, bookstores are finding ways to transform their companies or to innovate their business dealings to cope with Covid-19. It is vital that bookshops must remain relevant to the market it caters not only in terms of delivery services to its clientele but also to engage in the conversion of its books and other publications in digital format. This is most relevant during these times that the electronic transformation of educational methods in all stages has introduced a new approach to teaching and learning techniques called e-learning.
