    "Bibliopoly aims to be the world's premier site for high value offerings from leading international dealers in early and rare books. It has been designed specifically with this market in mind, having one of the most sophisticated search mechanisms currently available, including 250 subject categories (maths and logic are just two of thecategories available), a date range field and extensive multilingual dictionaries of author and place names. It provides a display and search service in 5 languages and users may also search for books by the language in which they were written.

    All dealers on Bibliopoly must either be members of an ILAB affiliated organisation or recommended by those booksellers who are. With the exception of bibliographical works, a minimum price of £100 or equivalent has been introduced to ensure the site is restricted to rare and antiquarian books.

    The site currently boasts 113 dealers from four continents, over 50,000 books, with an aggregate value of £57.8 million or US $84.4 million at the current rate of exchange."
