Re: Out-of-print book finding services

There are several good ones eg Bibliofind (www.bibliofind.com) but be
careful - they had their secure server hacked into recently!, ABEBooks
(www.abebooks.com) and Alibris (www.alibris.com) I find Alibris the most
efficient but a bit expensive (lots of first editions etc). ABE is the best
all round that I've found. Don't use Amazon, they just use one of the others
with a markup. Steve Davies
