SupportArmenian is the only dedicated directory for Armenian-owned businesses in the Greater Los Angeles area — including bookstores and book shops that carry Armenian literature, language books, history, children's books, and more. Whether you're looking for classic Armenian authors, Eastern or Western Armenian language learning materials, or gifts rooted in Armenian culture, these bookstores are where to start.
Every bookstore listed here is Armenian-owned. Supporting them means keeping Armenian literary culture alive in the diaspora and helping the next generation stay connected to their heritage through the written word.
From poetry and fiction by Armenian authors to historical non-fiction about the Armenian Genocide, the diaspora, and the homeland, Armenian bookstores carry titles you won't easily find elsewhere. Many also stock bilingual editions, Armenian-language children's books, and educational resources for families raising bilingual kids.
A small but important category. These shops carry Armenian-language titles, diaspora publishing and children's books that are hard to find anywhere else. The directory currently lists 8 businesses, each with contact details, services and location. Listings are submitted and maintained by the business owners themselves, so what you see here is first-hand rather than scraped.
Glendale has the most at 3, followed by Yerevan (1), Los Angeles (1), New York (1), Belmont (1). Southern California holds the bulk of the Armenian diaspora, so Glendale, Burbank and the San Fernando Valley recur throughout the directory, but listings outside California and in Armenia are included wherever members have added them.
Being able to explain what you need in Armenian, to a person who already understands the context, removes a lot of friction. It also keeps money inside a community that largely rebuilt itself from nothing twice over. Every listing here is either Armenian-owned or Armenian-serving, and owners can claim and update their own page.
