I am in Sweden and I can confirm that it is not a problem buying books. Already bought several, but as stated some books are not made available due to copyright issues. In your case I would venture that you would suffer from this less than we do. Maybe someone with publishing connections can weigh in, but I suspect that all major US publishers will hold the rights for publications south of Rio Grande, but not north of the 45 parallel, unless they have a Canadian subsidiary.
You might be able to purchase the books in other formats and convert them though. Perhaps therer ought to be a thread about books we want to get hold of, even if we are living outside the good ole' US of A.
