What is the difference between a hardcover book vs. a reinforced hardcover book?
Q. Sometimes when I am looking for a book online an online store will have the same book with a format of hardcover and then usually for a little bit more they will have a reinforced hardcover book edition. What is the difference?

A. The reinforced hardcover book generally refers to library binding, this binding is designed to withstand alot of use and is generally more expensive than regular hadrcover.

What are the pros and cons of buying a hardcover or soft cover book?
Q. I'm looking at textbooks for my psychology class, and they have the hardcover edition of the book I need for $100, while the softcover is there for $37. This is the first college level class I've ever taken, so I don't know what the difference is besides costs and the sturdyness of the book. Also, because I'm taking this class in the summer2 session, its the last time this book is being used, so I can't sell it afterwards to someone else, as its being replaced. What do I choose? Does it matter?

A. Get softcover, since you can't sell it and you probably won't have much use for it in the future, it would be a waste to spend over twice as much for the same book. The books will have the same info in them, which is what really matters.

How come new books always come out in hardcover?
Q. I know this is a useless question, but I really see no reason for books to always come out in hardcover first, I mean why can't they just be paperback right away? And what's the point of hardcovers anyways?

A. First off, it is a "pretty packaging" thing. Hardcover books look better. We may not realize it, but in our subconcious we judge everything by its appearance.

I have got books from them before and been satisfied with the condition of the books, which I thought was better than stated when I ordered them. Most of the books are reasonably priced, and they offer free shipping on orders in the US.

What's the best way to "break in" a new hardcover book?
Q. I just received a couple of books as a gift that I'd like to keep for a while. I seem to remember once receiving a lesson on the appropriate way to open a hardcover book for the first time. As I recall, we are supposed to open the book a few pages at a time. However, I can't remember whether we started in the center or at the outside. Could you give me some advice?

A. The following is copied from the website below: Opening a new book: Careless opening of a new book , or a newly bound book, can crack its spine. Books bound in plastic are especially prone to having tight spines. To safely open a new book, place the book on its spine on a flat surface, and, holding the text block upright, open the front cover and run fingers gently along the hinge. Do the same to the back cover, followed by both front and back end sheet pages. Then, altering front and back, open small sections of pages, applying the same gentle pressure with fingers, until the entire book is open. Hold the textblock in the same upright position during the process.

A. It depends on the book and author. If it's a popular author who puts out a book a year, then usually they launch the paperback of the previous book when the new hardcover comes out, like Charlaine Harris' Sookie series. If it is an author who isn't so prolific, then they may wait about 18 months or so, when demand for the hardback has waned somewhat. (Think Twilight and Harry Potter.) There isn't a strict timetable. A lot of really good books come out in paperback from the start and don't have a hardback version. If the authors become popular, then their books may start coming out in paperback first.

What is the difference between "Hardcover" and "Library Binding" when it comes to books?
Q. I was just browsing Harry Potter books on Barnes and Noble Booksellers website and I came across the same book but just printed in a different format (Hardcover and Library Binding/Edition) Whats the difference? I also notice that the Library Edition cost about 15.00 dollars more than the standard Hardcover; if that means anything. Thanks...

A. Library binding is a way to increase the life of books and periodicals used in libraries. This is done by sewing the pages in place and by reinforcing the spine for each volume Hardcover may have flexible sewn spines which allow the book to lie flat on a surface when opened, although most modern commercial hardcover books have glued spines. Library binding is also used to re-bind paperbacks or hardcover books making them more durable.
