Palm Springs is synonymous with golf, tennis, swimming, modernism, and Coachella. Now we’re adding rare books to the mix!

The UCR Library's Special Collections and University Archives is pleased to be a cultural partner for Rare Books Palm Springs, which is being held May 20 - 21 at The Hotel Zoso, located in the heart of Palm Springs' vibrant downtown with shopping, dining, and galleries right outside the door. 

Now you can attend the book fair and support UCR at the same time! More than 40 rare booksellers from across the country will share their love of books, fine prints, maps, ephemera, photography, and more. Opening night tickets are $25, include a glass of wine, and 100 percent of the proceeds benefit UCR Library's Special Collections and University Archives when you purchase them here!

All state and local health regulations will be followed, so face masks and proof of vaccination or negative Covid test may be required.
