The Anarchist Library
An archive focusing on anarchism, anarchist texts, and texts of interest for anarchists. Within the scope of our use of the term “anarchism” we have been quite broad, but broad does not mean infinite, and basically shrinks down to a set of ideas against the State and the capital.

What is The Anarchist Library?
An archive focusing on anarchism, anarchist texts, and texts of interest for anarchists. Within the scope of our use of the term “anarchism” we have been quite broad, but broad does not mean infinite, and basically shrinks down to a set of ideas against the State and the capital.
The library also contains a “book builder” feature that allows you to build a specific collection of texts and combine them into one, like a collection related to introducing anarchist thought. The site also provides an advanced search engine. Currently there are the English, Spanish, Serbo-Croatian, Finnish, Macedonian, and Russian libraries.
We ask that uploaders contribute a logical representation of the text, with headings, emphasis, quotation blocks, etc. marked up appropriately. The site provides some tools (inside the web interface) to make this process easy, but some attention and some care is still required. Please be sure to read the manual if you plan to join the project for the mid- to long-term.
Comments and Reviews
thats a great collection
One of the best archives of leftist theory online. The UI doesn't go by modern corporate "professional and well rounded" standards (which is a good thing), but it functions very well and is very regularly updated. It has over 10 thousand pieces of text in the english library alone, from known names to original work.
I do not consider myself at all an anarchist, however I decided to browse the titles here, most of which are old. And ended up spending the last two hours reading. Its not exclusive anarchist ideology, but rather a general rebellious sense towards the industrialized mechanisms of the elitist governing class. It seems kind of old and untouched, but you can find some very good content.
