Shop Indy Library Store Online

If you prefer online shopping, we can help you there as well! We have several online ways you can get your book fix—and support The Indianapolis Public Library Foundation. You can shop these options 24 hours a day, 365 days a year!


Option 1: Indy Library Store on Amazon
Our Amazon store routinely has thousands of items in it—and those items change daily! Our online books are not found in our brick and mortar store.


Option 2: ABE Books
Our ABE Books store is a pretty darn cool online location. ABE Books is where we sell our “antiquarian” books—those books that are older or rarer. When you visit our store, you’ll see on the home page a couple of online catalogs you can browse (Architecture, Art, First Editions, and more) as well as links to books with other specific content. Bibliophiles (book collectors) will find much to like at our ABE site. If you want to browse just Indy Library Store books, select the “view this seller’s items” link in the left side column or enter into one of our online catalogs.


Option 3: eBay In our ABE and Amazon stores you’ll primarily find books—and there’s nothing wrong with that! But, in our eBay store you’ll also find magazines, CDs, DVDs, and other assorted items, as well as books. We tend to keep a smaller, but more eclectic, inventory on eBay.


Option 4: The Future is Coming!
Soon we will have our own online store where you will be able to buy directly from us. Indy Library Store-Online will carry some of our primo items at prices you won’t be able to beat. Keep your eyes open for our debut. We’ll make a big splash about it.

See you at the sale!
