Joseph Fox Bookshop participates in hundreds of off-site Author Events each year as the official bookseller for the Free Library of Philadelphia's Author Events program, author appearances at the National Constitution Center and numerous other venues. We also sponsor events in partnership with Friends Select School in their modern four hundred seat auditorium and provide booksellers for private events. Signed books may be reserved in advance and are often available in-store after the appearances.  

Author events at the Free Library this Spring include Alice Walker, Walter Mosley, Jill McCorkle and Jami Attenberg, Joseph Ellis, George Packer, Joyce Carol Oates, Anchee Min, Oliver Sacks, Chuck Klosterman, and Beth Kephart. 

Events are added to our calendar on a regular basis; keep an eye on the calendar and sign up for our Author Events Newsletter for complete event details!
