Hey guys! I'm writing a novel, where a bookstore is its main setting, but there are a lot of things I don't know about how bookstores work. Obviously, shopping in bookstores isn't the only experience I need -.-
So, I have some questions:
1-How do they scan the ISBN for the book? What's the procedures they take before they sell you the book? For example, what do they do to not make the metal detector buzz on your way out, with the books you bought?
2-Where do they get the books from? Is it factories, or is it publishing companies?
3-Are their certain dates they agree on with their vendors to send them the book loads?
>.> I know. Tiring questions, but I do need an answer. So, please, if you know anything about that topic, tell me whatever you can think of. I have many other questions and I'm about to tear my hair out.
