Careers & talent
Build the smartest place on the web for used books
We work with independent, remote contributors who know books — or know how to reach the people who love them. Paid, flexible, project-based.
Book scouts
Visit sales, thrift stores and estates in your area; help assess and route collections. Strong local knowledge and a phone camera required.
Valuation contributors
Booksellers and experienced collectors who can review photos and give honest, well-reasoned opinions on edition and condition.
Writers & editors
Clear, accurate guides on buying, selling, collecting and caring for books. Original work only; sources checked.
Video creators
Short explainers: book-sale hauls, edition checks, repair basics, shelf tours. Shoot on your phone; we help with scripts.
Community & contests
Run the monthly contest, curate entries and help readers with questions.
Partnerships
Bring bookstores, estate buyers, libraries and sponsors on board.
Front-end developer
Static-site and JavaScript work: tools, data integrations and performance.
Student researchers
Library science, history and marketing students: research projects with credit.

How we work
- Remote-first. Work from anywhere; local roles are tied to where you live.
- Paid per project or per result. Rates agreed up front in writing.
- Honesty over hype. We tell readers when their books aren’t valuable. We expect the same integrity.
- Credit where due. Writers and creators are credited unless they prefer otherwise.
UsedBook.com welcomes applicants of every background. We assess work, not credentials.
