What is in this used book store email list?

The used book store file has 661 Google Maps listings, counted on 9 November 2026. A row is one secondhand bookshop: a general store with floor-to-ceiling shelves, a specialist in rare or antiquarian books, a nonprofit shop run for a library, or a comics and paperback exchange.

Of the 661 listings, 463 carry an email address, one per shop. Websites are on 463 rows and phones on 598. Independent booksellers tend to have a page that shows opening hours and a contact form or address.

Used book store is the only Google category in the file, so there is nothing to split by category.

How can you segment the file?

Any spreadsheet will filter the CSV. Booksellers divide in a few ways that the columns capture.

City is the most useful. A used bookshop depends on foot traffic and local readers, and many sit in college towns and downtown districts. The file lists 11 shops each in San Diego, Denver and Seattle, and 10 each in Portland and Philadelphia. A vendor can pick a city and cover most of its shops.

The business name column reveals specialization. Words such as rare, antiquarian, rare books, comics, paperback, Christian, children's or exchange show what a shop stocks. Words such as friends of the library or thrift mark nonprofit shops.

The email column shows how a shop is run. Free mail is on 177 of the 463 addresses, role addresses on 146 and named-person addresses on 140. A shop with a free mail address is usually a one or two person operation.

• City: college towns and downtown shopping districts.
• Name keywords: rare, antiquarian, comics, paperback, children's.
• Address type: named person for the owner, role address for the shop counter.
• Website: 463 rows, which often show a book catalog or a buyback policy.

Who buys a used book store email list?

The buyers are the businesses that sell to bookshops or that need sources of books. Used book wholesalers and library discard dealers sell boxes of stock by the pallet. Bookstore point of sale and inventory software sells systems that catalog books and list them online. Online marketplace tools help shops price and list titles.

Packaging and shipping suppliers sell mailers, book-safe boxes and label printers. Bookplate, bookmark and gift suppliers sell sideline items to counters. Insurance agents write policies for retail inventory. Local advertising firms and event organizers contact shops about sponsorships.

Estate liquidators and downsizing companies look for shops that will buy a whole collection, and authors or small publishers look for stores that will stock a local title.

How do you run outreach to used bookstores?

A used bookstore is usually run by an owner who prices books, buys collections and works the register. The email arrives in a mailbox that the owner checks between customers, often in the evening. Write like a person and skip the polished campaign tone.

Make the first line about the shop. The city and the name give you something to work with, and the website shows what the shop stocks. A wholesaler can mention which genres it ships. A software vendor can ask how the shop lists books online today. An author can say the book is local and offer a consignment arrangement.

Bookshops tend to be quiet midweek and busy on weekends, so a Tuesday or Wednesday message has a better chance of being read at the counter. Three or four lines and a single question are enough.

Dedupe by website before sending. A shop with two storefronts usually uses one address, and a nonprofit shop tied to a library may share a domain with the library.

What email rules apply when you contact booksellers?

CAN-SPAM sets two basics for a sales email to a bookshop. Print your company's valid physical postal address in the footer, and offer a clear opt-out that works. When a shop owner asks to be removed, delete the address from your list and do not mail it again.

Which states and cities should you start with?

California has the most bookshops, with 130 listings and 91 emails. Florida has 48 and 34, Texas 37 and 26, Colorado 34 and 24, Washington 26 and 18, North Carolina 24 and 17, New York 24 and 17, Arizona 22 and 15, Oregon 21 and 15, and Pennsylvania 20 and 14.

By city, San Diego, Denver and Seattle each have 11 listings. Portland and Philadelphia have 10, Minneapolis and Nashville 8, and Chicago, Las Vegas and Houston 7 each.

California holds about one listing in five, so a vendor can start there and then branch out. A rep who sells in the Pacific Northwest can cover Seattle and Portland together, and a Colorado seller has Denver. Shops without an email can be reached by phone, as 598 of 661 listings have a number.
