Welcome!
Whether you are LGBTQ+ yourself or want to learn more about LGBTQ+ history and people, the Brooklyn Public Library has many resources to offer casual readers and researchers alike. From picture books to deep-dives into the queer history of Brooklyn, we have print books and ebooks on just about every topic you can imagine!
Within this guide, you'll be able to explore books, movies, and online resources. You'll also see some important community resources including local organizations, social media content creators, trans-friendly healthcare providers, and more. We'll also touch on important terms to understand, important dates in LGBTQ+ culture and history, and Brooklyn-specific LGBTQ+ people we can be proud of!
