The structure of the title salt, C5H6NO(+)·C9H5O6 (-), (I), shows that 4-hy-droxy-pyridine has abstracted an H atom from benzene-1,3,5-tri-carb-oxy-lic acid, yielding a pyridinium cation and carboxyl-ate anion. The two ions form an extensive three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network throughout the crystal. The hydrogen bonds that comprise the core of the network are considered strong, with O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O donor-to-acceptor distances ranging from 2.533 (2) to 2.700 (2) Å.
