BEFORE YOU SEND YOUR LIST
Questions from
acquisition teams.
Can you source books without an ISBN?
Yes, we can assess Japanese title lists. Include the author, publisher, publication year or edition when known. We clarify uncertain matches before purchase.
Can I request an exact edition or used copies?
Specify your required editions and acceptable condition in the form or list. We assess those requirements and discuss alternatives with you; an alternative edition is not assumed to be acceptable.
What if a title is out of print or unavailable?
We can investigate used and out-of-print sourcing options. Availability is confirmed during assessment and procurement; sending a list does not guarantee every title can be found.
What is free in the pilot?
The initial sourcing assessment for a sample of up to 100 ISBNs is free. Books, procurement, processing and shipping are covered by a separate custom quote for your approval.
How do I send CSV, XLSX or TXT files?
Use the form to prepare an inquiry, then attach your original list in your email app. CSV and TXT can be checked locally on this page. XLSX contents are not read here. Selecting a file does not upload it or attach it automatically to your email.
Can you deliver to our scanning center?
We can discuss international delivery to your designated facility or scanning center. Share the destination country, facility, receiving requirements and timeline so we can scope the shipment.
Does procurement include scanning or AI training rights?
No. This service supplies physical books. Scanning, OCR, digital datasets and copyright licenses are outside the procurement scope. Your team handles any permissions required for subsequent use.
