PRIDE 2021 at SGS LRC

June 4, 2021 by Dani Wolfegang-James Leave a Comment

June has come around once again (as Junes are wont to do), and that means one very important thing: it’s Pride Month! Hooray!

And this Pride Month, SGS LRCs are proud to present to you a highlighted selection of LGBTQIA+ novels, non-fiction books, and DVDs from our lending catalogue. From the old classics through to modern young adult lit, queer writing and writers have shaped literature for as long as there has been literature to shape. Join us in celebrating these invaluable and inextricable contributions and contributors to our media, culture, and history across the spectrum, by reading and watching along with us!

[There is a full hyperlinked list of all items featured in the following images at the bottom of this post 🙂 ]
