In the seventh of June, in the Feria Internacional del Libro de Madrid, (International book fair in Madrid), has been showed the Mapa de Librerías 2005, (2005 Bookshop Map), developed by the Confederación Española de Gremios y Asociaciones de Libreros (CEGAL), (Spanish Confederation of Trades and Associations of booksellers), with the help from the Dirección General del Libro, Archivos y Bibliotecas del Ministerio de Cultura, (General Departament of Books, Archives and Libraries of the Culture Department). It is an updating of the map of spanish bookshops for 1999. The aims of the study are the analysis of the economic evolution of the sector and the updating of the bookshops census. They are given guidelines about management and bussiness strategy. The support for the spanish book sector has been developed since 1998 inside the Observatorio de la Librería, (Bookshops Observatory), aimed at the improvement and the innovation of the books process.
