Welcome to Airlie Press
where poetry, place, and passion converge

Airlie Press is a nonprofit publisher run by writers, dedicated to cultivating and sustaining fine contemporary poetry and to promoting poets from the Pacific Northwest—and beyond.


Update on Book Distribution & Orders Spring 2024

As you may have heard, our distributor, Small Press Distribution, recently shut down. While we have been aware of some of the issues that SPD has been struggling with over the years, like many other small presses, we were shocked by this abrupt closure. We are now in the process of exploring different distribution options for Airlie books. We have been and continue to be able to fulfill orders that come to us via our website (Titles page), and as always, we encourage these orders, the proceeds of which go directly toward enabling us to publish more beautiful books of poetry.

If you know of anyone who ordered a book from us via SPD, bookshop.org, or elsewhere who has not received their book, please have them contact us directly at airliepress@gmail.com so that we can ensure that they receive their order.

We also encourage our readers to consider purchasing books directly from the many other fine presses who have been affected by the closure.
