What people are saying: Thank you for putting on such an imaginative and daring series of programmes, for honoring Purdy, and for inviting my little buddy, Neil Besner, and me to participate. We both thought it was the right thing and better still a hoot. This was a wild and wonderful scheme! A fabulous act of imagination and daring. - Poet Dennis Cooley (on Mondo!Purdy 2009)

AQUA BOOKS - BOOKS WANTEDDue to the huge volume of books coming in, we will not be buying books until September 11. Thanks. Hi, bookstore owner Kelly Hughes here again. This list is very rough guide to authors that we often buy, but it is in no way comprehensive. If you have specific questions about the saleability of your books, please call me at 943-7555 during business hours, or email me anytime at kelly@aquabooks.ca. (NOTE: Please don't email me an Excel sheet of all of your books. I would be happy to give you a general idea of what we'll buy, but I don't have the time to go line-by-line through a list and check yes or no. It's more time-consuming for me than actually physically buying books. I'm afraid I would rather judge a book by its cover than look up every unfamiliar-sounding title or author. Thanks.) You can also visit our New Books This Week page to see some of the things that we consider very saleable. (Don't throw your books away just because they're not on either of these lists.)
A note about age and condition (not yours, the books): Also, the best way to transport more than a few books is in smallish boxes - up to about banana box size. We won't look at books that are in garbage bags, suitcases, hockey bags, or the box that your 27" TV came in. The books get damaged in transit, and such containers make it very difficult to efficiently sort through the books. Please make sure the boxes you use aren't full of leaves, dirt or beef blood either. Common sense? Not really. We've seen it all here more than enough. It's gross. If you have more than two or three boxes of books, you may want to email or phone ahead of time to let us know when you're coming. Ten boxes can take an hour to go through, if the store's not busy. That being said, things change over here from moment to moment, and we can't guarantee we'll be able to look at your books while you wait. Please see the Selling Your Books page for buying times and more on our buying policy.
