Abebooks have more than 80 million books listed which can be found online via their five websites which serve a global marketplace. Titles include new, secondhand, rare and out-of-print books made available from thousands of new and used books sellers to help you find what you want.

Abebooks make it simple to find the book you're looking for, and at the most competitive prices from the millions of books available, through their online search facility at www.abebooks.co.uk and www.abebooks.com. This is mainly due to the fact that in November 2005 they acquired BookFinder.com which provided a comprehensive price comparison service dedicated to finding the best value for searched books. In May 2006 Abebooks.com also aquired a 40 per cent stake in LibraryThing.com, a popular website that is designed to help book collectors and readers catalog their book collections and introduce them to a networking community of people who have similar interests in books.

The Abebooks headquarters are based in Victoria, BC Canada, with European offices and five websites serving an international customer base. By tapping into a community of thousands of independent booksellers around the globe they claim to be the world's largest online marketplace for books, so the chances of finding the book you want are extremely good.

You can test their search capabilities using their Search box to find a rare, used or out-of print book.
