Hi Francophones and francophiles! I am looking for all kinds of tips and info on places where you know one can get books and magazines in New York City.
The DOnell Library used to be a good source but now that it's closed, where is it possible to buy French literature or just Paris-Match!?
Thank you,
Jaz.

If you are looking for magazines, a good place for the most popular magazines and newspapers is right next to the Lincoln Plaza cinemas on 63rd and Broadway. Paris Match is definitely available. No books though. Hope this helps.
La magnifique librairie Rizzoli - 31 West 57th Street (between 5th & 6th Avenues) a New York, propose un nouveau rayon de livres en francais, avec une bonne selection de nouveaux romans, - prix litteraires -, ainsi que des classiques en edition de poche. En attendant la seance de 'The artist' - courez-y si vous n'avez pas encore vu ce film - j'ai eu le bonheur de denicher en poche un petit roman de Stephane Audeguy,- dont j'avais apprecie le precedent 'Theorie des nuages', intitule Fils unique, qui raconte les memoires imaginaires du frere de Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Un excellent choix pour se plonger dans le Paris pre-revolutionnaire du XVIIIe siecle.
