Where can I find documentation for Barnes and Noble search API?

They actually do have one, but unlike Amazon, its private, and getting access is a very manual and time consuming process.

Heres the process I went through:

  1. Sign up as an affiliate @ http://affiliates.barnesandnoble.com/join-now/ (http://affiliates.barnesandnoble.com/ has more information). You dont actually sign up with B&N, you sign up with LinkShare.
  2. Email [email protected] with your LinkShare ID and the URL of the site you are building
  3. Answer any questions they have about your site
  4. Get approved as an affiliate
  5. Accept the affiliate invitation on LinkShare
  6. Email the LinkShare contact requesting API access
  7. Wait for them to forward that email and B&N to get you set up (took a week in my case)
  8. Receive an email with your access key, and a few 3 page word docs of documentation

After that, youre set.

They do not have one.

Even better, they claim to have one, but when you register, theres actually nothing there:
