Multiple copies of one edition
Keep readers on the same edition, whether you need copies for a reading group, gifts or a shared activity. An exact ISBN helps us distinguish bindings, print sizes and revised editions.

One title or a mixed book list
Buy books in bulk
Order multiple copies of one book or bring different titles together in one request. Send us your ISBNs, quantities and delivery requirements, and we’ll check availability and prepare a quotation.
No sign-in or completed catalogue list is needed. Send a requirement for review; submitting an enquiry does not place an order.
Two ways to put your book order together
Different titles in one request
Bring a varied selection together with a quantity against each book. Use the catalogue to build a list, or send the titles you know and identify any editions you need help finding.

The details that help us quote accurately
Send what you know now. You can leave questions for us where the requirement is still taking shape.
- ISBN, edition and format
- An ISBN identifies the intended edition. Include title, author, binding or publisher where an ISBN is not yet known.
- Copies for each title
- Separate quantities let us check the full requirement, including mixed formats or editions.
- Required arrival date
- Give the date you need the books in hand, allowing time for your own preparation before an event or programme.
- Delivery destination
- Include the country and postcode, plus the number of locations if books are needed in more than one place.
- Purchasing requirements
- Mention purchase orders, invoice details or internal references if applicable so these can be addressed with the quotation.

Can I order multiple copies of one book?
Yes. Tell us the title, exact edition or ISBN and the number of copies you need. We’ll check availability for that quantity before preparing your quotation.
Can I combine different titles in one request?
Yes. Send a quantity for each ISBN or title, or build a mixed catalogue list. You can include different editions, formats and quantities in the same requirement.
Can I enquire without knowing every ISBN?
Yes. Give the title and author, publisher, format or any other details you know. If you are still choosing books, describe the requirement and ask us to help identify suitable published editions.
How is bulk pricing determined?
Pricing is reviewed against the books, editions, quantities and supply arrangements you request. Your quotation sets out the proposed prices and delivery terms. A fixed discount is not assumed.
Is there a minimum order?
Send the titles and quantities you have in mind. We’ll review the requirement and confirm whether we can supply it, together with the proposed pricing and delivery terms.
How are availability and delivery confirmed?
We check the requested editions and quantities against current availability and review your destination and required arrival date. Your quotation explains the proposed supply and delivery arrangements; an enquiry does not reserve stock or confirm a delivery date.
Can you help source a book I cannot find in the catalogue?
Send us the title, author or ISBN and the copies required. We can investigate unlisted, out-of-stock, out-of-print or hard-to-find books and explain what supply options are available. Sourcing is subject to availability.
