“As a librarian, I have been terrified that legislative action in my state will take away my access to not only borrowing queer materials, but also recommending them. Knowing that the QLL exists gives me hope that if the legislation does pass, I can still help people find access to the stories that represent them. “

“As a married lesbian in rural Arkansas, community is thin on the ground. I'm so grateful for QLL's work in bringing me voices to remind me that I'm not alone.“

“Finding this library has brought so much joy into my life! I love how easy it is to find queer books and love being able to immerse myself in queer worlds and learn about other queer experiences. “

“I absolutely love how easy it is to find both fiction and non-fiction books relating to LGBTQIA+ topics. I'm actively seeking information on marginalized groups and you make it easy to access information on them.“

“QLL has become like a trusted friend - a place where I know I can find comfort, adventure, and community from queer literature! I have seen the way the library has grown and have appreciated the decrease in wait times and increase in titles available. I am an audiobook only reader, so I would love for there to continue to be new and backlist titles available in audiobook format! Thank you for the work you have done to create this amazing, necessary resource for me and my queer community <3“

“This is what I’ve always been searching for.  As a queer person growing up in a very heteronormative environment, this library is providing me with the endless possibilities of a future that I could have never imagined as a young person. At 34, I’m devouring all the books I’ve missed out on since being a teenager. I’m so so grateful for this library.“
