September’s new ecommerce books are about social media and location-based marketing tools. Several of the books focus on online strategies for small businesses.

Here is a list of new ecommerce books in September. Included are both new releases and new editions. Release information and prices are taken from Amazon.com. To compile this list, I navigated to Amazon’s “Books” category. From there, I selected the “Business & Investing” sub-category. From there, I chose “Browse Subjects,” selected “Industries & Professions,” and chose “E-commerce.”
