Bookstore & Resellers Division
Frequently Asked Questions

Who is Brodart?
The Brodart Company has three divisions: for book and ephemera supplies, for library furniture, and for book distribution/processing to libraries and schools.

The Brodart Bookstore & Resellers Division has been manufacturing and supplying products for books and ephemera to libraries, schools, bookstores and the public for 65 years with distribution internationally.

Arthur Brody, the founder of Brodart Co., invented the plastic book jacket cover,
which is still a bestseller.

The main offices and factories are in northern Pennsylvania, as is their customer support staff.

What products are most popular?
Brodart makes or distributes about 37,000 products, the most popular for book stores and consumers being the book jacket covers, the rolls of Mylar (for books without dust jackets), and other products that protect, clean, repair and store books. Brodart display products (book supports, acrylic displayers, bookcarts) are frequently used in bookstores nationwide.
We have taken the most popular items to a Bookstore/Reseller and have included them in Brodart's Reseller Catalog. (click here to order).

How Can I use Brodart Products in my store?
You can use them to maintain the value of your book inventory, and to resell them to your customers.

More and more stores are putting book jacket covers on their expensive books to minimize damage, and to insure that if the books have to be returned, the publisher will accept them.

You can also sell items like book jacket covers individually. Many bookstores are charging $1-$1.50 for a cover, either on the book or as a separate item.

For books with no dust jackets, they have a roll of Mylar they quickly cut to size and charge anywhere from $2-$4 for this service.

Why would your customers purchase Brodart products?
If your customers care for books they will usually want to purchase items that will maintain their beauty and value; simple products at first, such as document cleaning pads, Absorene Book Cleaner and Dirt Erasers for cleaning, hinge tapes and similar for repairing, and, of course, every book needs a Brodart jacket.
