There are many bookstores that will do this.  I happen to be most familiar
with the Stanford University bookstore, which does publish a catalog and
will order virtually any book currently in print.  Unfortunately, the
Stanford bookstore is not cheap.  They often sell books at a higher price
than other bookstores.  I have been told that the MIT bookstore is better in
this regard; however I do not have first-hand information.  The Stanford
bookstore does offer you a refund at the end of the year if you buy
merchanidise without using a credit card.  This won't help you in your case.

Your best bet may be a mail-order bookstore -- a merchant that specializes
in mail order.  They are probably a little bit faster in shipping books to
you.  You can find many advertisements in technical journals and
semi-technical magazines.
