Don't miss our annual Newberry Book Fair, one of the largest used book sales in the country. Browse through more than 120,000 used books, movies, records and more in 70 categories, many of which are priced at $3 or less. Admission is FREE!

Everything for sale at the Book Fair is generously donated, and all proceeds help further the Newberry's mission to build and care for an extraordinary collection and share it—free of charge—with thousands of people from diverse backgrounds each year.

Want to beat the crowd? President's Fellows and Newberry Associates at the Authors level and above receive an invitation for two to Book Fair Preview Night as a benefit of membership. Become a member today to shop the sale before it opens to the general public.
