  • Amazon.comexternal link - This online bookstore provides access to several million titles. One feature that is particularly helpful, and gives it the edge over Books in Print, is the indication of whether a title is "permanently out of stock" and therefore more difficult to locate; however, Amazon does sell out-of-print books. Because Amazon is selling a product, it gives customers more information than Books in Print on how long it will take to find a given title. Amazon will also run a search for a title if given contact information. This site also offers book reviews, from the publishers as well as the general public.
  • Downloadable Audiobooks - Information about NetLibrary/Recorded Books, eMedia Library MP3 Player Instructions, Audio Online Book Clubs.
  • Authors' Web Sites - Learn more about the authors and their books on their personal web sites.
  • What's Nextexternal link - Search adult fiction for books linked by character(s), setting, or other common traits at the Kent District Library web site.
