AI Summary
This bill expands the definition of "book or other writing" to include sales of up to 1,500 copies, regardless of how they are published or sold, but it also removes the sales tax exemption for any sales of these items made through third-party platforms, such as bookstores, gift shops, or other retail outlets, meaning these types of sales will now be subject to sales tax.
