Read up on the importance of nurturing a vibrant local economy

Octavia Books continues to advance New Orleans' fine tradition of independent bookselling. When you can't shop in person at our physical store, we hope you'll enjoy visiting us here on the web where you can find out the latest news, check out upcoming events and order from well over two million titles at your fingertips. We are happy to ship directly to you; or you can arrange to pick up your order at our store.

Thank you for acknowledging the importance of our role as an independent bookstore and for making us your bookstore of choice!

Autographed Books Octavia Books frequently has booksigning events with authors from many walks of life who have their stories to tell. Many local authors periodically stop by the store to sign our stock so that we always have signed copies of their work on hand. Check out our selection of autographed books! (We do have limited copies of signed books, so please contact the store for more information!)
