Welcome!

Junius Books, founded in 1973, is one of the largest out-of-print book distributors in northern New Jersey. Initially opened as a retail outlet, Junius Books evolved into a mail order book company serving academic libraries, booksellers, bookdealers and book scouts.

In 1985 Junius-Vaughn Press was formed to coordinate the publication of numerous reference books in ethnic studies, medical history and eighteenth century studies.

Junius Books has traditionally offered out-of-print books at prices which allow libraries to stretch their book budgets and booksellers to resell their purchases profitably. Private consumers, familiar with the out-of-print book trade, have been delighted with our prices.

This site will be perpetually under construction as we endeavor to place our entire inventory of approximately thirty thousand titles online. We continue to receive new titles weekly.


Terms of Sale: In an effort to keep our prices low on both new publications and out-of-print books and ensure quality service we have adopted prudent business practices. All orders must be prepaid and will not be shipped without appropriate postage.
Reserving: To reserve items simply check the boxes adjacent to your selections. Then click on the button at the bottom of the page to add the selected items to your cart. At any time click on "View Cart" to proceed to checkout. We will email you confirmation of the availability of your selections. Once confirmation is sent, your selections will be held for seven days awaiting the receipt of your check with postage included.
Suggestions: Since we are traditional booksellers, the internet is a new marketing tool for us. We enthusiastically welcome any suggestions for possible improvement. Thank you in advance for your help.
