Specialized bookselling enterprises are presented at the book market of the Siberian cities: selling foreign literature (Krasnoyarks), children books (Krasnoyarsk), autobooks (Omsk), etc. Large networks effect greatly the regional book market. They are: Irkutsk «ProDalitЪ» (47 stores) and Novosibirsk «Aristotel’» (22 bookshops). Book trade of polar Norilsk is original and formed mainly by local publisher «Apex». In general, the modern book-selling landscape of Siberia is diverse and characterized by an extreme unevenness of the book business enterprises distribution. The local bookselling groups preservation and development is the basis and guarantee of the book culture development in the region.
