ＡＩ時代の読書　非効率な出会いの意味 · 2026年11月3日

店まで行き、各店の広さに応じた品ぞろえの棚の間に身を置く。

You go all the way to the store and place yourself among shelves whose selection suits the size of that particular store.

に応じた attaches to 各店の広さ and modifies 品ぞろえ: 'a selection that suits each store's size'. It means the stock varies with the size of the shop, so every store is different. That variety is part of why browsing is worthwhile. As in this sentence, the form before a noun is に応じた (not に応じての). Don't confuse it with 応じる meaning 'to respond to' (要求に応じる).
