These codes may be applied toward multiple qualifying Alibris for Libraries orders, providing discounts off our already-below-list prices of new, used, in-print, and out-of-print books, music, and movies. These savings are especially handy this time of year, with collection development work starting to heat up.
Please let us know if you have questions about these coupons, but please do hurry, as they expire September 16.
Receive orders faster with new "direct shipping" options
As you may have heard, Alibris for Libraries now offers expedited and even some overnight shipping options in addition to our standard consolidation services. Of course, the best part is that we accept your purchase orders for these new expedited services, so your books will be shipped right away, followed by the invoice.
With more than 100 million items in stock and ready to ship right away, Alibris for Libraries is ready to match your library's preferred workflow, on a book-by-book basis.
Stretch your budget with our lower list prices every day
Did you know that studies citing the average publisher's list price of library books set that average around $67 per book? Compare that to the average selling price of $30 per book ordered from Alibris for Libraries. This includes not just out-of-print or otherwise fine or rare editions, but any and all kinds of books that libraries tend to order.
Your library will save every day on new and used books across all disciplines, including university press titles, children's books, trade titles, etc. This helps you to get as many books as possible with the same or fewer budget dollars.
A fall conference schedule for all types of librarians
Law librarians, international librarians, school librarians, acquisitions and collection development librarians—we're seeing them all this fall. Here's hoping our paths cross somewhere down the road.
Meanwhile, please do feel free to suggest any other such conferences, consortia meetings, or really any gathering of librarians interested in discussing hard-to-find books, where we'll be happy to chime in on the current state of the market. (Hint: It's ever-changing.)
Alibris Tip: Deposit Accounts are easy
Did you know that, in addition to using purchase orders and credit cards, you can also place orders against an Alibris Deposit Account? For the record, setting up a Deposit Account couldn't be easier.
