Are you a Bookstore?
All the books in the world, without the shelves.
With BookBar, your bookshop can access a vast international catalogue of original-language books, without having to expand your physical space or warehouse.
A digital extension of your range, designed for bookshops of every size: more titles available, and more opportunities to meet your customers’ requests.
An international catalogue, for your bookshop too.
No matter the size of your bookshop, BookBar gives you access to millions of original-language titles, helping you expand your range.
Classic and contemporary fiction, non-fiction, language-learning books, professional and practical titles, academic and specialist editions, niche publications and titles that can be difficult to source through traditional channels.
And not just in English: the catalogue includes books in a wide range of original languages, giving your customers greater choice and helping you meet even the most specific requests.
More titles, without more stock.
Expanding your range does not necessarily mean expanding your shelves.
With BookBar, you can offer your customers titles that you do not necessarily need to keep in stock: the book is produced on demand when it is ordered.
A model that allows you to:
- expand your catalogue without increasing warehouse space;
- reduce stock levels and the risk of unsold books;
- minimise returns and unnecessary production;
- reduce capital tied up in stock;
- offer niche and slow-moving titles as well.
Print on demand gives you access to a virtually always-available catalogue that adapts to your customers’ requests without requiring an equally extensive physical stock.
More availability, less waste.
Printing only what is needed means producing a book when there is already a demand for it.
The print on demand model therefore helps reduce unnecessary production, excess inventory and waste, supporting a more sustainable approach to making books available.
