| Readers Digest Readers Digest range covers everything from health, DIY and cooking to romantic reading, condensed novels and genealogy.

| Advanced Book Exchange Over 8800 dealers with 30 million listings; in business since 1996. Allows a user to create a want list; e-mail notification when a match is made. Direct contact with dealers. Recently acquired JustBooks. |

| ABAA Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America site which searches all ABAA members' sites. Good source for those dealers who do not use a listing service, however their server and search engine is slow and unreliable. |

| Barnes & Noble Online source for new and used books. Utilizes ABE exclusively for used books. Passes along 15-150% markup to customer, but books are returnable. Also sell video, software, and music; competing hard with Amazon. |

Please note that this is a general list. Many used/rare dealers do not belong to any online search service and can only be found using a search engine. These sites are always changing, so URLs may not always be accurate.
