What Booksellers Say

"Ordering new titles using Edelweiss is a game changer. Previously I was selecting titles with a sharpie in the Buyers Notes catalogues we used to receive in the post. Then it would take up to a month for staff to manually input these ISBN's, in between serving customers at the counter. Now it's a whole different story. There is a wealth of information attached to each title to help with the buying decision. It really is magic!"

- Angela Pickard, Bridge Bookshop Ltd
