Sources
- found: Bookman's glossary, 1983: p. 36, Book trade, def. 2 (loosely, the general book business. Book trade, def. 1, would be a 450 to Booksellers and bookselling, as it says "Retail bookselling as a whole;" but such a reference combined with one to the BT Book industries and trade violates our hierarchy)
