Better World Books is an online store for buying new and used books. It was founded by three friends from the University of Notre Dame, Indiana, in 2002. They had recently graduated and didn't know what to do with all of the books they no longer needed. The solution was to sell their old textbooks online to people who needed them and this experience eventually evolved into the thriving online store that exists today.

Better World Books has many types of books including:

  • Biography
  • Cookbooks
  • Manga & Graphic Novels
  • Medical
  • Children's
  • Travel
  • True Crime
  • History
  • Psychology

You can get all the books you want to read through a simple process.

Place Your Order

Step one: Log in to your account using the email address and password you used to sign up.

Step two: Start shopping! You can search for a book if you know what you're looking for or browse through the excellent collection of titles.

Step three: When you find a book you want to buy, click Add To Cart.

Step four: When you're finished selecting your books, click on your cart and you'll see them in a list. If you're done shopping, click Proceed to Checkout.

Step five: If you have a coupon code, type it in at the bottom of your Order Summary and click Apply to receive your discount.

Step six: If you do not already have a shipping address saved to your account, type in your address.

If you don't have a payment method saved to your account, type in your credit card information and choose your currency. If you would prefer to use PayPal as your payment method, click More Payment Options and select PayPal. You'll be prompted to connect with PayPal on the next page. If you have a gift certificate, check the designated box.

If your billing address is the same as your shipping address, check the designated box. If it is different, uncheck the box and type in the billing address associated with your credit card. Place your order.

Each order is packaged and shipped within two business days, and then delivered to your door. If you move into a new home, it's important that you update your address in the Account section of the website or you risk your next order being delivered to the wrong address.

How To Change Your Shipping Address on Your Better World Books Order

You'll need to provide the order number and the updated address.

After you change the address on the order, update the shipping address on your account to prevent the same mistake from happening on future orders.
