Non-Profit Alternative Bookstore |
551, Marigny Street New Orleans, LA 70117 United States +1 504 944 0366 http://www.ironrail.org |
Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina, the following description may no longer be accurate. Please consider this when making your travel plans.

At Iron Rail Book Collective there is no rush to get your products purchased: feel free to browse through alternative genres such as anarchism, gay and lesbian studies and social theory while relaxing in the reading room. Book prices may seem cheap on Amazon, but here you can borrow a book for free from the lending library. And if you can't afford the $10 membership fee, put in three hours of volunteer work instead.
