FAQ
Readers Club
The Bahamas Book Club is Bahamas's first book rental library. You browse books online, pick the ones you like and we send them to you. You can rent the books for as long as you like-no late fee.
The rental queue is the list of books that you want to read. Books in the Rental Queue are given a Priority and delivered automatically according to the order you choose. If the Book you choose is in circulation or reserved by another member you will be shown the message “Reserved By Other”. You will get the Books which are shown as “Available”. Hence it is recommended that you keep at least 10 books in your Rental Queue, so that you always have something to read.
Books are shipped to you based on priority and availability. If a book is in great demand, despite having multiple copies, we can have a ‘Reserved By Other' situation. Therefore, a longer book queue helps us continuously deliver books of your choice. You are less likely to be faced with a scenario, where you are not shipped books due to an out-of-stock inventory position.
Books are shipped in the order of your queue, subject to availability. Your first choice of book may be in very high demand. If a particular title is not available, the next available book in your queue will be sent to you. We are investing substantial capital to build our inventory, both for new titles as well as additional copies of existing titles. We will fill book request as soon as title of your choice is available.
Chances are you only have a few books in your queue or you've chosen only those books that are in peak demand. Try adding more books to your queue. To get the most out of your membership and for your own convenience, we strongly recommend that you keep at least ten books in your queue.
You can keep the books for as long as you want. There are no due dates or late fee.
Books will be delivered to you at the shipping address you give us when you register.
After you register with The Readers Club, we will give you a welcome call within 1 working day to confirm your membership details, and also answer any questions you may have. We deliver books as per your plan within 24 working hours.
