FAQ
Why should I order from Nebraska Book Source?
Nebraska Book Source offers a range of hard-to-find titles related to Nebraska from independent and small publishers, and in some cases we may be the only source. Like our mother company, Infusionmedia, we are a small, independent company, and we do our best to ensure you the best possible experience in ordering from us.
- We have over nine years of catalog experience (and over twenty years of experience in book design and custom publishing, editing, and graphic design)—and we put it to work for you.
- We buy local as often as possible, and we work with local and regional vendors for our supplies as often as possible to keep the money we spend in the regional economy. Buying local also helps minimize our impact on the environment.
- We support independent publishers, including self-publishers, and we seek better solutions to help them get their books and other content to you.
- We make the extra effort to get your order right.
What kinds of books does Nebraska Book Source carry?
We carry titles from small and independent publishers that run the gamut from nonfiction to science fiction, paperback to hardcover. As we continue to add titles—including ebooks—to our online catalog, we expect to increase the number of genres we offer. To see our current offerings, please visit our Products page.
What are my shipping options?
Our standard shipping option provides delivery confirmation via USPS Media Mail and delivery of your order within 8 to 12 days of processing within the continental US. The shipping cost is based on weight and is a flat rate. Because our standard shipping uses USPS Media Mail, packages can weigh no more than 70 pounds and be no more than 108 inches in combined length and girth. We also cannot include any advertising or promotional material in standard shipping shipments; if you would like a catalog to be sent with your order (once we have them available again), please email us and we will add you to our mailing list (or opt-in to receive emails from us when you place your order).
How long will it take to receive my order?
Orders are sent as soon as possible, and in-stock orders are normally sent within five business days of receipt. Out-of-stock orders may take up to four weeks, depending on the supplier and how quickly they send us product. Because we are a small operation, order shipment may be delayed due to weather, illness, or other absences from our office. PLEASE ALLOW FOUR TO SIX WEEKS FOR DELIVERY OF YOUR ORDER.
