Includes our two powerful title research tools, Titlelink and Pubstock, accessible online at the Bookmanager website or using the Stockchecker browser plug-in (Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox only). Titlelink is our massive database of over 29 million titles, many of which include cover images, descriptions, author bios, and interior previews. Pubstock shows the stock-availability for millions of books carried by over fifty vendors who sell to American booksellers. You can find out which vendors carry a particular ISBN, its current cover price, the wholesale discount, and how many is currently in stock and/or on order at the supplier.
| BMData for US stores | $1,780 |

*There is a $450 discount off the BMData subscription if you participate in a weekly upload of your store's on-hands and ISBNs sold during the past week. This data is used anonomously to power searching and provide title ranking for the Bookmanager community.
The Bookmanager Software, data, and Webstore can be used at businesses with multiple locations. The software and data will sync between locations, allowing you to do stock checks, transfers, and orders with ease. The Webstore can service all your locations with a single site, whereby consumers select their preferred shopping location to browse and pick up from. The Webstore is not mandatory with a multi-store, and can be added after the fact when you're ready.
Pricing for a multi-store set up is as follows: each location buys their own software, data, and Webstore; the main location pays regular price on the software and data, while all secondary locations get 50% off their data, initial Webstore fee, and data/Webstore renewals. Secondary locations have an additional fee on the software price depending on two scenarios outlined below.
If you are a brand new Bookmanager user wanting to set up multiple locations at the same time, there is an additional $1000 on the software price for each secondary location. For example: the main location's Bookmanager software would be $5000, and all other locations would be $6000. If you are an existing Bookmanager user wanting to add another location, there is an additional $500 on the software price for that new location. For example: the new location would be $5500 for the Bookmanager software.
For a brand new, three-store* set up with two computers at each and a combined Webstore, all going live with Bookmanager at around the same time:
| Store #1 | $8230 |
| Store #2 | $8315 |
| Store #3 | $8315 |
| Total in USD | $24,860 |
|---|
*Most multi-stores prefer to set up one store at a time with Bookmanager, spacing out implementation at each location over a few months. This way, staff training and disruption to existing business is minimized, and you save $500 on each location for spacing them out. In the above quote, spacing out the setup would save you $1000.

Are you adding a multi-store location in 2026? In 2025, we saw many of our bookstores add second locations, which was fantastic to see! If you are an existing Bookmanager user and another location is in your plans for 2026, know that our onboarding team requires at least a month of notice before you need your software up and running. Our multi locations never have to sign up for the waitlist for new installs, but we do want to make sure that all of the details are covered to make the process as smooth as possible for you. Things like discussing how your two (or more) stores will communicate different details, how you wish your Webstore to be setup (i.e. one central website with pick up locations or separately branded sites), and all the setup involved for EDI (so those new books arriving can be electronically received) takes time. Please contact Carley if you have any exciting news to share about your future plans, or if you are considering adding another location and have questions. |
If you are currently using a point-of-sale or inventory management system, we can work with you on converting and bringing over your existing data. We have experience converting data from other systems such as Basil, Anthology, Booklog, Square, Shopify, iBID, WordStock, SquareOne, Bookstore Manager, Lightspeed, and Quickbooks. Depending on the version and age of your current system, we may be able to work with your original data files, otherwise exported spreadsheets are always an option. If you are using a generic, non-bookstore specific system that can export data to a spreadsheet format (XLS, XLSX, Google Sheet, CSV, tab delimited text), we will have no problem importing data.
The cost of your data conversion is included in your system purchase price.

Though our removable labels come off with ease and without the use of a tool, the Scotty Peeler can make large volume de-labelling even faster. This tool has been designed specifically for use with labels, with a sharpened bevel on three sides of the blade (it's razor sharp - Band-Aids not included!) and a sheath that coats the blade in a release agent. $10 |
