do you mean like french learning books for foreigners
le parvis probably does

[tiny crater]

I think they mean just general books in french (probably with lower levels available)
And then stationery is what they meant for the other part

But yeah searching for librairies will get you good results

For stationery you could probably just write that, not sure about other things you could look up

[true bloom]

The main chains here are Fnac, Cultura, and l’Espace Culturel (which you can find easily in every mall with a E.Leclerc supermarket) and they don't just sell books but also stationery and other cultural products (music albums, videogames, movies, musical instuments, material for crafting...). The only chain really specialised in stationery is Bureau Vallée but don't go there.
However if you want to find independent bookstores, you're likely to find one by chance in the street so finding one is not really hard, but you can use websites like this one https://www.leslibraires.fr/le_reseau/

[main vortex]

is there a reason you're looking for chains?

there are lots and lots of good independent book stores in paris

if you walk around, you're bound to run into them

[astral geode]

Consistency but also because they're usually available throughout the country and they usually have websites where you can order books

Any local bookstores are also appreciated tbh, I'm fine with anything

[astral geode]

Ah thanks that's like exactly what I'm looking for lol

Somewhat similar to Kyobo in South Korea

They have music, stationary products, electronics, books, etc

[astral geode]

Yep places that sell French books

Oh yeah if you guys know any places with those second-hand bookstores they'd also be appreciated
