Established by a group of dedicated book lovers, and has seen its inventory grow from 1,000 books to well over 3 million books and media items in stock.

We are a circular economy, for profit company that supports charities and protects the planet by enabling more goods to be reused. By choosing to buy from us, you’re helping to continually recycle and share the love of literature, films and music.

Our prices are low to help millions of used books, CDs and DVDs find new homes in over 190 countries worldwide every year. World of Books purchases significant volumes of donated books from UK charities, taking the titles they don’t want or haven’t got space for.

Our customers are helping to support good causes too – boosting revenues for charities and saving waste disposal costs. Our business model has generated over £12m for charities in the last 5 years.

We consider ourselves pioneers in the re-use and recycling of unwanted books, recycling 27,000 tonnes of books each year, equivalent to 500,000 trees.

We do our best to provide good quality books and media but there’s no escaping the fact that it has been owned and read by someone else before you. It may well show signs of wear and tear, however each one of our items is hand-checked by our dedicated team for defects before shipping.

We hope you enjoy browsing through our titles today.
