Bookshop chain Borders was placed in administration today, raising doubts over 1,150 jobs.

The firm, which has 45 branded Borders and Books Etc stores across the UK, including one in Brighton's Churchill Square shopping centre, has come under severe pressure from internet competition during the past year.

Administrators MCR said the business continued to trade while a buyer is sought for all or some of the company's stores.
