VALLEY FORGE, PA (ABNS 3/16/10)—In response to the economic concerns of the past two years, Judson Press has launched a program to help book buyers find quality resources at discounted prices. Titled “Books Like New,” the on-line program offers both current and out-of-print favorites at 60% off their original retail price.
“Though their covers may show some wear, each book’s readability is completely unaffected, making them an excellent choice for churches, libraries, students, and book collectors,” notes marketing director Kim Shimer.
Publisher Laura Alden remarked on some of the out-of-print gems that are being made available for purchase. “We’ve been surprised at what’s turned up in the warehouse. Shoppers will find classics by George Vanderlip, Robert Laurin, William Willimon, Glenn Asquith, Orlando Tibbetts, and many others.”
Books Like New are available in a variety of categories, including Christian Living, Church and Pastor Resources, Sermons and Preaching, Devotionals and Meditations, African American interest, and more. With most of these books available only in limited quantities, Judson Press recommends that customers orders early for best selection. There are no guarantees additional copies will become available, though Alden notes that new titles are being added daily so shoppers will want to visit the site often. Because of the low prices, all Books Like New purchases are non-returnable.
