SCHOOL BOOK FAIRS- SOUTH CAROLINA SCHOOL DISTRICT COOPERATIVE

Lexington County School District One, in partnership with other South Carolina districts, issued an RFP to procure comprehensive book‑fair services for every school in its network. The selected vendors will schedule and operate book fairs throughout the academic year, providing a curated selection of books, managing sales, and supporting literacy initiatives. The goal is to create an accessible, engaging venue for students, families, and staff to purchase books, build personal libraries, and enhance overall reading outcomes. • Scope includes planning, logistics, inventory, on‑site staffing, and post‑event reporting for each school’s book fair. • Services must align with the district’s literacy goals and be adaptable to each school’s calendar and space constraints. • The solicitation was open from 15 Jan 2026 to 12 Feb 2026, with a QA deadline of 20 Jan 2026; two vendors were ultimately awarded the contract.
