This is a
list of bookstore chains with "brick-and-mortar" locations. In the
United Kingdom, they are known as "bookshops" and "newsagents". In American English, they are called "bookstores" and "newsstands" (as they also carry newspapers and
magazines). In British English, most promotional advertising of books typically use the phrase "available at all
good book shops", which is not used in American English (the phrase "available at local bookstores booksellers" or similar is usually employed).
Some bookstore chains may either offer new books, second-hand books, or liquidated books.
In addition to paperback and hardback books, most large modern chains also sell
videos,
DVDs,
audiobooks,
radio dramas, and music CDs.
