Collectively operated since 1973

Update! December 2020 We have reopened the store to the public from Wednesday through Sunday from 12 to 5 PM. Left Bank is still not open for browsing, but we are happy to help you find what you need.

If you would like to support Left Bank through this, please donate to our gofundme.

If you’d like to order books from home, check out our webstore. We are still shipping out mail orders 3 days a week (through USPS), and can take calls during our open hours (Wed-Sun 12-5).

If you don’t need any books now, or want to give someone an awesome gift, purchasing store credit is also a huge help. We don’t currently have a way for you to use store credit to purchase anything on our online store, but you can email or message us through Facebook or Instagram to purchase books with it.

Thank you all for your support and please stay safe out there.
