Thursday Recs

[soc_puppet]

Hello, all! It's Thursday Recs o'Clock!

This week I am recommending the Queer Liberation Library.

Via their website:

Queer Liberation Library (QLL) is fighting to build a vibrant, flourishing queer future by connecting LGBTQ+ people with literature, information, and resources that celebrate the unique and empowering diversity of our community.

They're currently fundraising to open an all-digital library, with a projected opening in October.

One of the useful things their website has is a bar you can click on at the very top that will redirect you to weather.com, should you need to hide your interest for safety reasons.

Overall, it looks like a fantastic cause, especially in the era of increased book challenges and banning in the US. Definitely something to check out!


Do you have a rec for this week? Just reply to this post with something queer or queer-adjacent (such as, soap made by a queer person that isn't necessarily queer themed) that you'd, well, recommend. Self-recs are welcome, as are recs for fandom-related content!

Or have you tried something that's been recced here? Do you have your own report to share about it? I'd love to hear about it!

I think this library project has so much potential! While I'll always fight for the importance of local public libraries, I think the Queer Liberation Library would be a great supplement to those spaces - especially right now. A private library can't be attacked the same way as a publically funded collection. It's too bad that we need this but we gotta get those books to people somehow.

… nerd out about libraries in this thread, I guess?
