Seafarers Book Service
The Marine Society & Sea Cadets offers a direct book-selling service that covers any and every book in print, from block-busting bestsellers to vocational heavyweights.
So we can cater for all your reading needs whether you're after a paperback for the beach or the latest manual from the IMO and whether your order is large or small! And all in super-fast time!
What's more, we can provide all your reading needs at an exclusive discount of at least 10% off the published price - and that includes publications from those organizations for which we are authorised distributors, such as IMO; Nautical Institute; Lloyds Register-Fairplay; Informa; Witherby Seamanship.
Any surplus funds generated by our book-selling operation to seafarers are ploughed back into our charitable operations which go to support seafarers.
So by buying your books from us you help yourself to a discount and you get to help seafarers, too!
How to purchase your books For enquiries please contact Alison Harris,
Book Services Manager, on 020 7654 7008

Book of the Month IMO BOOKS – AUTHORISED DISTRIBUTOR
IMO Authorised Distributor
As some of you may know, the International Maritime Organization – the only UN operation based in the UK – has just celebrated its 60th birthday by moving back into refurbished premises on the Albert Embankment, across the river from the Houses of Parliament.
Whilst their facilities are state-of-the-art, the bookshop that was attached to the Library no longer exists and delegates are being directed to 202 Lambeth Road to buy their books. Purchases can be made by cash, cheque or credit card and we endeavour to hold stock of ALL English titles, plus best-sellers in French and Spanish. Other publications can be obtained with prior notice - call 0207 654 7008 or email books@ms-sc.org.
