Founded in 2002, World of Books is a sustainable online destination for book lovers — a place to buy and sell both preloved and new books with ease and purpose.

With a mission to help people read more and waste less, we offer a huge range of affordable, high-quality books, giving every title — whether brand new or preloved — the chance to be enjoyed again.

And when you're ready to part with your books, World of Books – Sell Your Books makes it simple to pass them on. Our easy-to-use platform lets customers trade in unwanted books for cash, keeping books in circulation and reducing waste — a win for both readers and the planet.

For those who want to scale up, World of Books – Sell Your Books Pro is a trusted software solution designed to help charities and individuals sell books faster and at better prices. So far, our technology has helped raise over £70 million for UK charity partners.

As a proud Certified B Corp, we’re committed to becoming the world’s largest and most sustainable dedicated online bookstore. Our success is measured not just in sales, but in the positive environmental impact we create, the value we bring to our customers, and our ability to thrive while staying true to our sustainable mission.
