From March until May, 2020, book sales in Bulgaria fell by 50%-70% as compared to the same period last year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Bulgarian Book Association announced. The data is based on survey among book publishers and book sellers. Online book sales increased by 30% during the period.

Translators, editors, proofreaders and illustrators are made redundant due to the impact of Covid-19 on the sector.
