'''Villager Trade Rebalance''' (called '''Villager Trade Rebalancing''' in ''Bedrock Edition'') is an [[experiment]] available in both {{JE}} and {{BE}} that tweaks the [[trade]]s of several villager [[profession]]s and [[wandering trader]]s in an attempt to make them more fair.
 
According to [[Mojang Studios|Mojang]]<ref>{{snap|23w31a|August 2, 2023}}</ref>, librarian trades are considered to be too overpowered compared to using an [[enchanting table]] or searching for [[enchanted books]]. With the new changes, [[players]] must explore [[villages]] in different [[biomes]] and unlock villager tiers instead of relying on random chances. Wandering traders had unfair prices and didn't sell many useful items. With the new changes, their prices are lowered, more trades are added, and they can also purchase items from the player. Additionally, various [[explorer maps]] were given to [[cartographer]]s to make it easier for players to locate specific biomes.
 
In [[Java Edition 1.21.5]] and [[Bedrock Edition 1.21.70]], the cartographer and wandering trader changes were fully implemented and moved out of the experiment.
