​Ornithopter Press is an independent publisher of poetry with a focus on work by contemporary authors who offer exceptional counterpoints to the literary mainstream. The press publishes both chapbooks and perfect bound paperbacks.

Prior to 2018, the press focused exclusively on chapbooks by individual authors. Each chapbook is limited to a single short run.

This year, Ornithopter introduced the first in a prospective collection of perfect bound books by writers who are too unconventional (too interesting!) to find a home with the big commercial publishers.

Both books and chapbooks will remain integral to the press's mission. The possibilities are endless . . .
