The Alternative Press Index (API) is an American bibliographic database that indexes politically progressive publications. Founded in 1969, the journal is committed to providing a comprehensive guide to alternative, leftist, and radical newspapers and magazines. They focus on topics such as feminism, socialism, anarchism, liberation movements, Indigenous peoples, Black Movement, and labor.[1]

API indexes articles of 5 or more paragraphs. The database notably covers international and interdisciplinary materials going back as far as 20 years.[2][3] It has also been said that 90% of publications indexed by API are not indexed anywhere else.[4]

Alternative Press Index has provided access to works by notable figures such as bell hooks, Angela Davis, and Judith Butler.

The Alternative Press Center produces the Alternative Press Index. [5]
