Support independent used book stores

Get involved and help local mom-an-pop booksellers around the world thrive

If you're like us, you have a deep affinity with used book stores - there's something about them that simply feels right. If so, join Biblio.com and its independent booksellers in promoting literacy, environmental responsibility and the success of small, independent businesses around the world (and, lest we forget, great used books!). To get involved today, here are a few things you can do:

Spread the word!

We don't have a very big marketing budget, unlike some of our larger corporate competitors. We mostly rely on fellow book lovers and book sellers in telling their friends or family about us and what we're trying to do - that probably means you!

Blog about Biblio!

Maybe you have a blog already - we'd love a ping from you! In fact, we've got our own used books blog that we'd love to cross links with your book-related blog. In any case, drop us a note and let us know about your blog!

Hand out some Biblio bookmarks to your friends, family and co-workers!

But, where do you get bookmarks, you ask? If you'd like some very cool (and very free) Biblio.com bookmarks to hand out to people, just drop us a quick note at - be sure to include your name and shipping address, and about how many bookmarks you'd like to receive!

Catch us on Facebook!

We're really new to Facebook, so just getting started with our presence, but feel free to drop by Biblio on Facebook and be one of the first to add us as a friend (fyi - we occasionally may squirrel away a coupon there). Or, if you're interested in helping to support our work in literacy and education, check out BiblioWorks' Cause Page on Facebook.

Shop used books at your local brick and mortar!

We're not saying if you shop for used books it has to be through Biblio or even online! Be sure to pay a visit to your local used book store, pick up a stack of great books. Don't forget to tell them that Biblio said "hi"!

"I was impressed with your story, your triple bottom line, and while you state you can't wait to see where it ends, I hope it never ends. We need so many more like you."
