U.K.'s Daunt Books Launches New Websites

Shelf Awareness

London bookshop chain Daunt Books has launched a pair of new websites dedicated to its bookselling and publishing divisions. The Bookseller reported that the websites "were designed and built by the company's booksellers, with employees from each Daunt shop contributing, led by Patrick Power and Rosanna Lyttelton from the Marylebone branch. Staff from all six shops will write the website blogs."

Daunt Books publisher Laura Macaulay noted that the goal of the platforms is to give customers a "lovingly curated online experience that recreates a visit to one of our London bookshops.... All our titles are inspired by the Daunt Books shops and the exciting atmosphere of discovery to be found in a good bookshop, and with a growing list, it was time for our own websi
te."
