The research aims to analyze reading as a strategy for social inclusion in book fairs in the State of Mexico to have a panorama that makes visible the realities in relation to the subject.

It was carried out from a qualitative approach, which allowed to analyze, within the book fairs, the following three categories: physical space, commercialization and activities, in order to have an interpretive vision towards the object of study.

As part of the results, it can be affirmed that reading as a social inclusion strategy in the book fairs of the State of Mexico gradually begins to be glimpsed in certain actions that were observed from the three aforementioned categories, however this manifestation seems to be temporarily.

It is fundamentally the commercial part to which the greatest weight is attributed and this can be seen from the planning that supports them since each fair is organized according to an exhibitors manual where the productive and economic part prevails, leaving aside the fair as a cultural space that serves to achieve, among other things, that reading fosters social inclusion.
