Are signed books signed by the author?
Yes, signed books, usually first editions, are hand signed by the author. Barnes & Noble frequently releases limited editions of books that include the author’s signature. These books are signed by the author before becoming available in our stores or reaching our warehouse.
Are autographed books worth anything?
The value of an autographed book depends on the prominence of its author, on whether it is a first edition and the condition of the book. New signed releases by popular authors will usually not hold as much dollar value as highly sought after or rare first editions of older works, but the thought behind a book signed by someone's favorite author is valuable in itself!
