Today we have completed the relocation of our web-server to a new connection. We hope that this relocation will not adversely affect the smooth operation of our on-line catalogue.
This relocation should not affect you, the customer, or the quality of the experience of browsing our website, and may in fact improve that quality. Our website is as secured as ever, and we will continue to protect your personal details as we have always done.
In case you do experience some glitches or errors resulting from the server relocation, please contact us to report them, so that we may address such issues with haste.
Thank you for your patience and understanding,
-- The Book Gallery Website Staff.

We have recently begun cataloguing some of our vynil record albums, which were previously only sold directly at our store. Special and rare albums will now be appearing for sale world-wide through this website.
You can browse the record list in the Records Category.
Please note: We offer a wide variety of record albums from all genres and periods for sale at the store itself. This website will only list especially interesting albums.

Dear customers,
Our language- and category-based book lists now allow combining a specific language and category to produce a list that shows only books from that language AND category.
This allows you to browse for books from a specific subject in a specific language. This feature is available in both the Category Browser and the Language Browser sections of this website.
29.4.10
Dear customers,
We have just opened our Rare Books catalogue for on-line browsing. This is an easy-to-use list, sorted by categories and languages, that includes all books from our Rare Books section of the store.
You can click here to browse the Rare Books catalogue. In the future, the link will always be available through the button in the lower part of the Bibliophile`s Corner (on the sidebar).

Fortunately, we are staying on top of the situation at present, and hope that we can remain open for business without further interruptions. If you experience any irregularities or malfunctions with our site, we would appreciate if you contact us through our Contact Page or our e-mail address at info@bookgallery.co.il.
Sincerely,
The Book Gallery Staff

As promised, it is now possible to view a complete list of all the newest additions to our on-line catalogue (see just below this news-box).
It is also possible to view the new books in each individual category, and the scroller shows a random selection of 10 new books added in the last few days.
Happy new year!

30.12.07
Both our search pages now offer users the ability to sort books by their title, author, or the date they were added to our catalogue. This allows users to view books added recently, or otherwise sort search results in an easy-to-view manner.
Coming soon: a list of all the newest additions to our catalogue, updated daily. Keep your eyes peeled!
18.11.07
No sooner said than done, our Advanced Search page has now been completely redone as well. The Advanced Search engine now accepts true keyword combinations, and also allows for three different degrees of search strictness.
(Also note, some errors that have been occurring in regular search over the past 24 hours have been rectified. Happy book-hunting!)
17.11.07
Our Search feature has been completely refurbished, to make it suitable for the 21st century (Finally!). Instead of the old rigid search, our new search truly enables the user to look for keywords, as he or she would on web search engines. For now, only our regular search has been updated. An update for the Advanced Search feature will be implemented within the next few days.
14.11.07
Due to massively complicated reforms in the Israeli Postal Service shipping charges, we have updated our Shipping Costs page. It now allows customers to select a country and method of shipment, and receive an estimate on the price of shipping. Please note that, as book weights vary considerably, we can only give a final shipping quote after an order has been placed. We do not accept payment before confirming these costs with the customer, of course.
10.11.07
A help page has been created for our website.
If you have any questions, or would like to learn how to use our site, please visit the help page. It contains many answers to some of the most frequently asked questions we get.
2.11.07
We have finally integrated both our English and Hebrew catalogues. It is now possible to search for keywords in the Hebrew language without switching to our Hebrew site. Simply type in your search words in the search box (top left of the page), just as you would with English words.
Please note that as a side-effect, Hebrew books may appear as part of regular English searches. This happens mostly if a book is missing its English-language details, but has Hebrew details available.
22.10.07
Our site has been undergoing some slight renovations. As part of these renovations, we have introduced over ten thousand new books to our on-line catalogue! Don't miss this opportunity to seek out new and interesting reading material at the book gallery!
If you can't find what you're looking for, please remember that our store contains tens of thousands more books which are not listed in our on-line catalogue. To inquire about these books, please visit the contact page.
