Bookstore Tips
All University of North Carolina Press books are available through bookstores.
You'll find that many independent booksellers across the country, along with the Border's
and Barnes & Noble stores, now stock a variety of university press titles,
especially paperbacks. Browsing is more rewarding than ever!
If the book you need is not in stock locally, we encourage you to place a
special order with your bookseller. Many special orders can be filled within
a week or so, via regional distribution centers. Try it! A special order is
likely to be more efficient than you expected. And, collectively, they are a
fine way to support local booksellers.
To assist Internet users and to show our appreciation for our bookstore customers, the University of North Carolina Press here introduces the first in a series of lists that will highlight some of the shops that regularly stock a selection of our books. (
Note: We are not including university and college bookstores or the booksellers in
the Carolinas and Virginia, who regularly stock a good selection of our
scholarly and trade titles). Bookstores, if you carry UNC Press books and
would like to be listed here, please contact Johanna Grimes,
Sales Manager at UNC Press.
