Each Waterstones outlet contains, on an average, around 30,000 book titles. However, some of its stores also contain up to 200,000 titles. However, what is more noteworthy here is not the number of available book titles, but the sincere dedication of the company staff , which has developed an incredible insight into the reading material making them expert guide for customers to advice on the choice of books.
