Store Description

We are a husband-and-wife team united by a lifelong passion for books. Our journey into bookselling began in 2003, sparked when one of us left graduate school to follow her dream of becoming a teacher. To help fund this new chapter, she started by selling her college textbooks online, and from there, our adventure into bookselling quickly blossomed. Our seller name, digger-dogger, reflects our deep love for dogs and is inspired by the playful nickname of one of our beloved Old English Sheepdogs. This spirited dog famously burrowed beneath our backyard deck, creating a cool and shady den to relax in?her "digger-dogger" antics becoming part of family lore. Over the past two decades, we've dedicated ourselves to curating a unique collection with a strong focus on non-fiction titles, especially rare, out-of-print, and specialized-topic books. We take pride in connecting our customers with the knowledge and stories they've been searching for, from academic subjects and professional resources to niche interests and historical explorations. Every order receives personal care, reflecting our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. Thank you for exploring our bookstore?we hope you find your next treasured read here.
