Conditions d’utilisation

The simple, fair terms for using our website and ordering from The Library of Alexandria — in plain language, so you always know where you stand.

Agreement to these terms

Welcome to The Library of Alexandria, operated by Library of Alexandria Press LLC. By browsing this website, placing an order, or accessing digital content, you agree to these Terms of Service. If anything is unclear, email support@libraryofalexandria.com and we will reply within one business day.

What we sell

We publish printed book sets and single volumes in paperback, hardcover and large print, together with digital companion materials — eBooks, audiobooks, and a digital library of historical, religious, and literary texts.

  • Printed books are printed to order and shipped with tracking. Book offers that state free shipping ship free, as their page says; every other printed book ships tracked, at cost, at the price shown at checkout.
  • Most products are one-time purchases, not subscriptions. If you enroll in the library plan, it is a recurring subscription governed by our Plan terms.
  • We describe every product as accurately as we can. Minor variations in printing, binding, or finish do not affect the contents or your rights.

Pricing and orders

Prices are shown and charged in the currency shown at checkout: U.S. dollars, or your local currency where we offer it. Prices, promotions, and availability may change without notice. Your plan's agreed per-day prices in U.S. dollars are never raised while your plan stays active; this does not cover print, shipping or purchases on their own. Prices shown in another currency are converted from U.S. dollars and can follow the exchange rate. Placing an order is an offer to buy; your order is confirmed once we accept it and send your confirmation email. We may refuse, limit, or cancel any order — for example for a suspected pricing error, an unverifiable payment, or suspected fraud — and if we cancel a paid order we refund it in full. Any taxes or import duties are determined by your local jurisdiction.

Returns, refunds, and guarantee

Printed sets and single volumes bought through our book offers are covered by the guarantee that the offer states (refunds require return of the books at the customer's shipping cost, U.S. and international).

  • The library plan has no money-back guarantee. Nothing is charged in the 90 free days, you can cancel anytime, and payments already made for the plan are not refunded.
  • Anything you buy on its own on libraryofalexandria.com (an eBook, an audiobook, a printed book — paperback, hardcover or large print — or a gift) carries a 30-day money-back guarantee.
  • Printed books at the at-cost price, ordered through the library plan, are final sale. A damaged or defective copy is always replaced free of charge.

Full details are in our Refund policy, which forms part of these terms.

Your digital content and how you may use it

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to download and enjoy digital works for your own personal, non-commercial use. Please do not resell, redistribute, sublicense, or publicly share the files. Digital content remains yours to keep even if you return a printed set.

The nature of these texts

We offer printed and digital religious, historical, and literary texts for personal study, reading, and reference. Library of Alexandria Press is a publisher, not a religious authority. We make no doctrinal, theological, spiritual, medical, or life-outcome claims about these texts, and nothing in our materials should be read as such. Any interpretation you draw is your own.

Acceptable use & intellectual property

You agree to use our website lawfully and not to interfere with its operation or security. The site, its content, and our branding are the property of Library of Alexandria Press and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws; please do not copy or reuse them without permission.

Limitation of liability

The services are provided "as is." To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any order is limited to the amount you paid for that order, and we are not liable for indirect or incidental losses. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot be limited by law, including your statutory consumer rights.

Governing law & changes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, USA. We may update them as our products and policies evolve; the version published here is the one that applies to your order.

Mobile Messaging Terms

By opting in to text messages from The Library of Alexandria, you consent to receive recurring automated marketing messages (including cart reminders) at the phone number provided. Consent is not a condition of any purchase. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel at any time, or HELP for help. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. We may modify or terminate the messaging program at any time. See our Privacy Policy for how we handle your information.

Personal editions

You can add your own message or picture to a printed book. We don't print: threats, harassment or hate; sexual content; other people's phone numbers, home addresses or ID numbers; logos, trademarks or someone else's text or picture you don't have the right to use; anything that is illegal where the book is sent. We check every message and picture before printing. If we can't print it, we tell you on the page before you order, or by email with a full refund if it is found after you pay. The message is printed exactly as you wrote it, so please check spelling, names and dates.
