The Book Trade Charity BTBS hit the national papers this week. A crowdfunding scheme designed to help booksellers during Covid-19 received a donation of £250,000. This is in addition to the donations raised on a GoFundMe page set up by Gayle Lazda, Željka Marošević and Kishani Widyaratna.
In this episode of bookcareers Live we speak to the Operations Manager of BTBS, Glenda Barnard.
