Commissioned by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science (OCW), Dialogic, together with APE, is researching the effects and effectiveness of the Fixed Book Price Act.

This law was established to protect books as cultural assets. The aim of the law is to promote wide availability and diverse supply of books in Dutch and Frisian languages through a geographically widely spread network of bookstores in the Netherlands.

The research focuses, among other things, on the diversity of the title offerings in the period 2013-2018. Additionally, we are mapping the developments in the 'physical book landscape' and examining the digital developments in e-commerce and e-books.
