Serial Vendors

Out-of-Print Bookdealers

  • ABEBOOKS: Bookfinder also searches this site, but it has a nice feature where you can email the seller and ask specific questions about a particular item. Most dealers on Abe appear to be professional book dealers, often with stores. We have had good luck contacting them directly, and asking if they will accept purchase orders, etc.
  • ALIBRIS: Alibris takes purchase orders, but charge a premium for this--if you need them faster/cheaper & have a credit card, use the public version of their site, not the library version.
  • Barnes and Noble: If it says in stock ships in 24 hours, they have it somewhere. They also can take purchase orders...but check with UND accounting first.
  • Biblio: World's largest suppliers of used, rare, and out-of-print books
  • BIBLIOFIND: Bibliofind is combined with Amazon.com to provide millions of rare, used, and out-of-print books. 
  • Bookfinder: It searches multiple out of print sites like Alibris, Amazon, Abebooks.
