About us

A family of antiquarian booksellers

Boekhandel-Antiquariaat Emile Kerssemakers is a family business with deep roots in the antiquarian book trade. Established in 1992, it has grown into a specialised online antiquarian bookshop with a wide-ranging stock and a strong international reputation.

Emile comes from a true family of antiquarian booksellers: his father Leo Kerssemakers ran Antiquariaat Alfa in Nijmegen and Grave. Since 2003 Emile and Loes have run the business together from Limburg, entirely online, with a large storage facility in Eygelshoven. Emile has also been co-organiser of the Antiquarian Book Fair in Mechelen for many years.

Selling books?

We buy books in every field, from a few volumes to entire libraries

Looking to sell books? Kerssemakers Antiquariaat specialises in buying second-hand and antiquarian books, with a clear preference for academic and specialist libraries. If you are unsure, feel free to contact us: we provide free and honest advice.

How does it work?

  1. Send a short description of the books or collection.
  2. Add a few clear photos if possible. Overview photos are fine (e.g., several shelves at once), as long as the spines are reasonably readable.
  3. We review your offer and let you know whether there is interest.
  4. If we agree, we will make a proposal and arrange the next steps.

You can send your offer by email or WhatsApp. Large collections do not need to be fully inventoried in advance.
