Toronto Antiquarian Book Fair

Toronto Antiquarian Book Fair We are delighted that the 2026 TABF will return to its new home at the OCAD University’s Waterfront Campus. Watch this space for further news.

Books, pamphlets, posters, & works on paper of all kinds will be displayed, for you to examine and buy. Sponsored by the Antiquarian Booksellers' Association of Canada, the Toronto Antiquarian Book Fair is celebrating its 50th anniversary. It joins the prestigious California, New York and Boston fairs on the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers’ (ILAB) North American calendar. As the on

ly international antiquarian and collectible book fair in Canada, the TABF features exhibitors of fine, rare, collectible and out-of-print books and works on paper. All exhibitors are members of their national associations and of the ILAB and are, therefore, among the world’s foremost booksellers. They will bring a wide ranging selection of items for your perusal and purchase.
