Approximately 5200 employees of Indigo Books &Music Inc. are being laid off as of today.

The Toronto-based book seller has decided to keep its stores closed indefinitely during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Indigo had paid its staffers though March 27th after temporarily closing its stores March 17th.

The company says it expects to ``re-embrace'' as many employees as possible once stores reopen.
