dc.description.abstract	This paper first describes the types of booksellers in Ghana: the street hawkers, the small or one-man booksellers, the giant booksellers, and the university booksellers. It gives attention to their problems, in the first place the low level of literacy in the country, but also the poor reading habits of the educated minority, the lack of means of students, and lack of funds for acquisition in libraries. Yet the future of bookselling in Ghana does not appear gloomy. An effective partnership between booksellers and libraries can help in promoting the book trade	en_US
