HPB Educators Discount Program

Save 10% year-round in store.

As part of our commitment to literacy, Half Price Books supports educators, school teachers and librarians in the community with an Educator Discount Card to save 10% all year round! Shop HPB for a great selection of children’s books and educational materials. And best of all, it fits your budget.

It’s simple to apply and easy to save. Our gift to you. Stock up for your classroom and get something for yourself. Either way, you’ll save just because we appreciate what you do as an educator in the community. If you don’t have an Educator Discount Card, apply for one today and save 10% on all your purchases at Half Price Books year-round. It’s simple to apply and easy to save. And remember, your money goes twice as far at Half Price Books, where almost everything is half price or less every day.

Renew Your Card

Each fall, remember to renew your discount card to keep saving 10% on your purchases at Half Price Books. Renew your old discount card at your neighborhood Half Price Books. Just bring in a valid ID or proof of current employment such as a pay stub or employee ID card.

Do you qualify?

The Educator Discount Card will be offered to teachers and librarians who are able to present current identification (a pay stub or ID card) that verifies their status as a public or private school teacher (including college/university teaching assistants) or a school or city librarian. We will also honor the discount for educators who’ve been laid-off or taken early retirement in the past year. See store for details. Homeschoolers should provide verification from their state or local homeschooling organization where applicable. Day care providers and private specialty instructors do not qualify for the discount. Card must be renewed annually. Discount valid in-store only. Not valid online.
