Be fair to customers and our employees, promote literacy, be kind to the environment and remain financially viable so we may continue. Teachers save 10% at HPB! Half Price Books welcomes educators, schoolteachers, and librarians* to apply for a renewable Educator Discount Card to save 10% on all in-store purchases year-round. Half Price Books supports efforts to combat illiteracy by partnering with local literacy nonprofits nationwide. Not only do we provide coinboxes at registers in our retail locations which allow customers to donate to literacy nonprofits in their area, but we highlight local nonprofits from each of our stores’ regions every September to garner additional support for them during National Literacy Month. Half Price Books follow the sustainability mantra “Books should fill our lives, not our land.” and has remained dedicated to establishing eco-friendly practices at every level of operation since 1972.
