| Dear
(bookseller),
The
world's largest online marketplace for books is now even bigger:
Gene's Books of Stafford, Kansas uploaded AbeBooks' 100 millionth
listing on September 21, 2006.
About
the Book
The 100 millionth listing on AbeBooks was a signed 1991 first
edition of A Checklist of the Vertebrate Animals of Kansas
by George D Potts and Thomas T Collins. Gene Medenwald of Gene's
Books bought the book at an estate auction in Concordia, Kansas.
AbeBooks purchased the book from Gene as an important piece of
our company history.
The
New Logo
We're launching a new logo this week, which we hope will help
people recognize and remember us better. The book icon shows what
we're all about – moving books around the world - and is
more memorable than the simple wordmark we've used since 2000.
You'll notice the new style of writing our name, too: AbeBooks,
which demonstrates the pronunciation of the company name.
Check
out the top left corner of this e-mail message to see our new
logo! It'll be live on the Web site tomorrow.
International
Expansion
Please join us in welcoming the Iberlibro
buyers and booksellers this season when our Spanish Web site will
be fully integrated with AbeBooks. Our Spanish sellers' listings
will be searchable from the four AbeBooks Web sites, and buyers
on Ibleribro.com will find your listings, too. If you have any Spanish
language books in your inventory that aren't online yet, now is
a good time to add them!
We'll
also be launching an Italian Web site in the new year: www.abebooks.it.
Already, more than 50 Italian booksellers have signed up to sell
their books.
Thank you for joining us in welcoming our newest international
booksellers and buyers, as well as our new logo, to the AbeBooks
team.
Sincerely,
All
of us at AbeBooks
