New Alibris Program Encourages Book Buyers to Sell Books Online

"Alibris Basic" program opens the largest online bookselling sales network to book lovers, students, publishers, and collectors

EMERYVILLE, CA—May 24, 2007—Alibris, the premiere online destination for new and used books, extended its reputation as the top online exchange for independent booksellers by launching " Alibris Basic." An industry-leading program designed for small and moderate booksellers, the Alibris Basic program makes online bookselling affordable and accessible, enabling anyone to sell their new and used books, used textbooks, as well as their rare and out-of-print books, across Alibris's unparalleled network of sales channels. Through one convenient inventory upload, students and bibliophiles can list their books for sale in many locations around the world, including the following:

• The Alibris Web sites (www.alibris.com and www.alibris.co.uk)
• Thousands of academic and public libraries
• Business partners like Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, Borders, and Chapters/Indigo

"We spent many years refining industry-leading capabilities for our professional booksellers, and we are delighted to offer these to smaller sellers, publishers, and readers with books to sell," said Marty Manley, Chairman and CEO of Alibris. "These books will, in turn, increase the quality and depth of selection that we can offer to our customers and business partners."

In the worldwide marketplace of bookselling, the benefits of Alibris Basic are also global. The program gives avid readers and students a lucrative, promising opportunity to recoup their book-buying dollars while recycling their unwanted stocks of books. Because reselling is recycling, Alibris Basic helps sellers earn money while contributing to a healthier environment.
