An out of print book is a book that has ceased being reprinted or printed by the publisher. This generally means that there is a limitation of the supply of this book with the only existing stock being the copies that were published when the book was released. A majority of books go out of print after the waning of their popularity because readers have moved onto newer books. Another reason that may lead to an out of print book is that the book never had strong sales results at the time of release and it is no longer financially beneficial for the publisher to keep the book active.
An out of print book situation may also result from a publisher who becomes bankrupt. Most publishers are capable of distinguishing between books that are truthfully out of print book, compared to books that have been reissued or re-released under a new format or cover design. In such cases, people are capable of obtaining new copies of the original book once it is re-released under its new format or cover design. Some recent popular books are re-issued in a special commemorative edition which includes a special foreword by the author and a ribbon bookmark in a hardcover edition.
In the case where a book has truly become out of print, readers or collectors who desire this book must commence a search in the used book market where the out of print book is often sold. For a relatively recent book, copies may still be available in new bookstores, and also in second-hand book stores. A majority of these retail used bookstores perform searches for a certain fee and search on an antiquarian bookseller's database which requires the store to pay a subscription fee monthly or annually.
A book that is out of print is not necessarily a rare or valuable book. The factors that determine its value are the total number of books printed, the surviving copies and the cultural importance of the book as well as the demand for the book An out of print book may also result from a publisher's intentional limitation in print run size.. If the print run for the book is only 2,000, the book will likely prove to be quite valuable and rare assuming that there is sufficient demand for those 2,000 copies. Current fiction bestsellers that have been abundantly printed in millions of copies will not command a high price. The general economic principle of demand and supply is the ultimate deciding factor for how much an out of print book is worth.
