On Monday, IndieCommerce informed subscribing stores of a new policy regarding available inventory. Beginning this week, only publishers’ titles that are made available to retailers for sale in all available formats will be included in the IndieCommerce inventory database.
Independent bookstores are showing continued resilience this holiday season, with reported online and in-store sales well over last year’s results, according to ABA.
With the completion last week of IndieCommerce’s pre-holiday upgrades, booksellers have a new set of tools to drive sales between their bricks-and-mortar and online stores and customers have an easier shopping experience.
Over the past month, ABA IndieCommerce has rolled out a series of major updates to member stores’ IndieCommerce sites. The work, done with the help of Drupal development firm Optaros, was based on bookseller feedback.
