Distribution Submissions

We rely on AK Press Distribution to be the someone who will say what has to be said.—Margarita Shalina, St. Marks Bookshop, NYC

We are always seeking exciting new material to distribute. Our goal is to make available radical books and other materials that are published by independent presses, not the corporate giants, with which you can make a positive change in the world. All decision-making, including which titles we distribute, is made collectively.

Distribution channels we service include: Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Borders, Last Gasp, Baker and Taylor, Tower Records, Chapters, Midwest Library Service, Microcosm Distribution, Disticore Wholesale (Canada), Jura Distribution (Australia), College bookstores for text orders, and all independent bookstores, record stores, specialty retail customers, and individuals worldwide.

If you would like to be distributed by AK Press please send a sample of your publication(s) to:
