New Listing
Report
Next week we’ll be launching a new Listing Report that you can use to synchronize
your local copy of your inventory with what’s currently online. The report
includes information such as your BookID and price, and because it’s in tab
delimited format, you’ll
be able to import it into other programs to format, sort and edit as you
need. Check the Announcements on
the forums next week for more details and instructions.
Holiday & Textbook
Recaps
The 2005 Holiday campaign was a huge success, with over 4 million customers
visiting the site. Our Winter Textbook campaign has also been successful, with
significant visitor and order increases over 2005.

future product testing, please join our Bookseller
