Waste not, read a lot.That one simple philosophy is the inspiration behind the country's largest family-owned bookstore chain. But we do more than just read a lot: We buy and sell new and used books, music, movies, games, electronic devices and collectibles in more than 120 stores and growing.

Half Price Books has been dedicated to literacy and environmental initiatives since 1972. We give back to the community by supporting hundreds of worthy projects, including the Million Book Donation Project and the Half Pint Library Book Drive.
