Free book sale with fiction and non-fiction for children and adults at Hull Central Library, run by Hull Libraries.
Hull Central Library is holding a bumper book sale from Saturday 24 October to Saturday 31 October, with fiction and non-fiction for children and adults. It's run by Hull Libraries, and there's no booking needed — you just turn up. The sale runs every day across that week, from 10 am to 4 pm, so you can drop in whenever suits you best.
The sale sits alongside a couple of wider reading campaigns the library is promoting. One is the National Year of Reading 2026, and the other is 'Take 10 to Read', which saw the National Literacy Trust and the British Council aim for a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the most people reading online in 12 hours. If you're already in the building for the books, it's a good time to see what else they're doing around reading this year.
There's also a bit more going on at the library's Makerspace Hull, the arts and technology workspace. They're running 'Space to Inspire', a project funded by DCMS through the Libraries Improvement Fund and delivered by Arts Council England. It's a separate thing from the sale, but it's part of the same building, so it's worth keeping in mind if you're spending any time there.
