Behemot bookstore presentation at e-Bukve event organized by Zavod K6/4. Mainly exploring the effect of text digitization on small independent bookstores and if there's any useful experience after 15 years of bookselling that can apply to and help local community and sooth the effect that austerity measures have on contemporary society.
