If you receive a “Too Many Requests” error while using BooksRun, it means you've sent multiple requests to the website in a short period of time, triggering our server’s rate-limiting protection. This is a common safeguard used to ensure system stability for all users.
But don’t worry — this issue is easy to resolve. Here's how.
1. Wait and Try Again Later
The rate limit usually resets within a few minutes.
Simply waiting and reloading the page after some time often resolves the issue.
2. Use Bulk ISBN Search
If you're working with a long list of books, avoid individual searches.
Enter multiple ISBNs in the search field at once
Separate them with spaces or commas
3. Switch Your Browser or Use the Mobile App
Sometimes, switching the browser can reduce this issue.
Try a different browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Safari)
Or use our free mobile app for Android or iOS for smoother performance
