Queer Liberation Library @queerliblib.bsky.social · Nov 15
Wow, hi new followers, hey! We’re Queer Liberation Library.

QLL is a digital library of queer ebooks & audiobooks available FOR FREE to anyone in the US. Our collection’s in Libby so you can read to your heart's content on your e-reader, phone, etc.

membership details downthread~
A scrapbooky, zine-like image. In the top left corner there’s a picture of a young kid in rainbow face paint waving a rainbow flag atop a woman's shoulders, as they both watch a pride parade. A photo of a group of people, young and old, carrying a pink LESBIAN & GAY PRIDE banner is seen in the bottom center. Top right, a picture of two gorgeous drag queens: one in a light pink wig and white dress decked in butterflies, and the other literally dressed as Lady Liberty in a rainbow toga. Text throughout, in mismatched fonts and on torn paper, reads "Q: So, what is QLL? a: Queer Liberation Library is an ONLINE DIGITAL LIBRARY …that is by and for the LGBTQIA+ community and our allies, focusing on queer materials and queer perspectives.”

🎃 The veil is thin, the nights are long, and the books are VERY queer. 👻

This Halloween reading list has witches, ghosts, monsters, haunted houses, forbidden desire, and plenty of things that go bump in the night.

In 2025, 39% of challenged books represent the lived experiences of LGBTQIA+ people and people of color.

This isn't just censorship. It's an attack on our communities!

Read banned books. Help us continue fighting for equal access to knowledge. 🏳️‍🌈📚
