The given maps show a bookstore in 2000 and at present. They compare the main features of the shop and highlight the changes that have taken place over time.
Overall, the bookstore has changed a lot over time. It has become more modern and comfortable for customers with new sections added and a cafe opened, while some areas have been moved.
In 2000, the bookstore mainly sold books. The biggest area was for fiction, which was at the back and on the right side of the shop. In the middle there were smaller sections such as travel, new books, art, hobbies, and cookery. The service desk was near the entrance on the left, so customers could easily get help. Non-fiction books were in the right corner.
Now, the layout is different and more varied. Fiction is still there, but it is smaller than before. The non-fiction section has been moved to the right side of the shop. At the top there are separate sections for art, hobbies, and cookery. One big change is the café in the bottom right corner, which replaced part of the book area. Also, there are tables and chairs in the middle so visitors can sit and relax.
