Frequently Asked Questions

Sourced Editions is a sample list from our Book Request Service—part of BIBLIONEPAL’s mission to make every book accessible to readers in Nepal. The titles here aren’t in stock right now, but we can special-order them on demand.

Each copy is ordered only after you ask for it. Instead you’ll see “Order via WhatsApp” or “Order via Email,” so we can confirm stock and delivery timeline before you commit.

Click the “Order via WhatsApp” or “Order via Email” button on the product page. Our team will reply within a few hours with availability and an estimated arrival window.

Most Sourced Editions reach our Thamel store in 3 – 4 weeks. You can message us anytime to check exactly where your book is on its journey.

All customs duties and fees are already included in the price. Only a handful of books ever incur these charges, and we never add hidden or service fees—because our mission is to make every book accessible to Nepali readers.

Full pre-payment is required for all Sourced Editions (Bank transfer, eSewa, Khalti or any other mobile banking services). Because each copy is ordered just for you, confirmed orders can’t be cancelled.

We import single copies on demand, so we’re unable to discount these titles. The goal is simply to make otherwise-unavailable books reachable for Nepali readers.

Through a global network of distributors and direct relationships with publishers. Wherever the book is in print, we’ll track it down and bring it for you.

Absolutely. This collection is just a glimpse. Use our Book Request form (or message us) for any in-print title—whether or not it appears here.
