Loading ...Find an independent used bookstore near you!
(and shop their books online - or off)
We’ve long meant to provide a way that customers can search the combined inventory of their local independent used bookstores online. We’re pretty pleased to have that pet project off the ground over at Biblio.com - even if only for U.S. bookstores at present. So, head on over to Biblio.com, find local used bookstores near you, and search their combined inventory online. I promise its very geekycool for book people.
Whether you buy books online using Biblio.com, or head down the road and visit their shops, we want you to join us in supporting independent bookstores! Don’t forget to bookmark the page for future use, or share with your friends!
And, if you’re looking for local, independent new bookstores, be sure to bookmark the ABA’s IndieBound, too.

We have always admired biblio.com for the tools provided to both book sellers and buyers.
Your high energy initiative is very welcome.
Over the years we often referred inquiries to local businesses in an areas such as Texas or California sellers (We are in Canada) where the customer would benefit from quick local shipping or personal service.
Our only complaint is the subject lines on your postings are too modest and professional (smile)
