Welcome

The Greater St. Louis Book Fair, one of the nation’s largest and oldest charity book sales, is a rich source of new and used books, records, tapes, CDs, DVDs, videos, magazines and ephemera.

Since 1950, the Fair has been a favorite spring destination of avid readers and serious bibliophiles. Items are donated by book enthusiasts who have well-loved material they no longer read or can no longer keep. The Fair collects these items and then sells them back to new readers at low prices. Proceeds are then used to promote education and literacy in the St. Louis community.
