Personalized Book Fairs believes that people will buy quality childrens books. We have found that the best way to increase sales at a school book fair is to provide a great selection of bookstore quality titles. The more diverse the titles the better the chance of having something there for everyone.  Almost half of your students will not step inside a true book store this year, why not offer them the chance to find a good book. We are bringing the bookstore to them, not more book-of-the-month club titles.

We are independent of all publishing houses, therefore our top criteria for book selections are the stories and the educational benefits your children deserve. There is no pressure on us to include slow selling in-house titles. We strive to provide the largest array of children's literature available with over 700 titles from over 30 publishers included in your fair.

What does "Personalized" mean?

Personalized refers to the packing of each individual book fair. Every school receives a unique book fair based on its enrollment, grade levels, and staff input. When you add in seasonal and current releases, no two fairs are alike. A middle school does not need a lot of primary titles and a K-3 building doesn't need a lot of Young Adult titles. Your school will have a book fair full of titles relevant to your student body. It all comes down to this...the books that will be at your fair.

The selections filling our bookcases have been chosen by people supplying school book fairs for nearly 20 years. But it doesn't end with us. We will send you an advanced copy of our current booklist and ask you and your school staff to look it over. We ask for your input on any additions or subtractions. You can get a sample of available titles by clicking on our Spine-Breakers catalogue.

We have two types of presentation

 

Our book fair can be delivered two ways:

1) In boxes when the plan is for tabletop display

2) In rolling bookcases for instant set-up

If you have the volunteers, the time and the space, table-top fairs result in about a 15% increase in sales versus the bookcases. Tabletops allow for a better presentation, nothing gets lost on the shelves.

That said, we know it's tough finding those volunteers and time to make fund-raising work, therefore bookcases remain the most popular choice.

Our bookcases are unique in design. They are made of wood adding to the feel of a bookstore. And they open up on both sides forming a more stable "T" shape.

In either case we will help with the set-up at the time of delivery. That includes suggesting floor plans, putting up floor displays, getting the bookcases placed etc. In most instances, when delivering our bookcases, we can have your book fair unloaded and ready to go within two hours. We even have a program where we will staff your book fair. If that still sounds like to much work please check out our Online Book Fair program.

Our book fairs are tax-free, and no inventory is kept on your end. We believe that our book fair can help raise money and reading levels!

Your parents are constantly bombarded with fundraisers. Shouldn't your book fair truly sell books and not computer games, toys and things that glitter.
