A holiday message from all of us to all of you. ❄️

That's it! 2025 is over. 🥳

While it was a rough one for our community (to say the least), it was a busy one for the QT Library, and we can't help but have a little hope for our future and that of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Relive the highlights with us, and a toast to so much more in 2026!
December 22, 2025 at 2:06 PM
🌱 Today is the FINAL DAY of our annual campaign! If you can give, your support will help us achieve our dream to — drumroll, please — open a pop-up in summer 2026! YOU can join us in making our dream an on-the-ground reality.

#BookSky, let's see if we can get to $25K! https://loom.ly/mQH2k_0

But in all seriousness, when we asked Eve why she's dedicated time to the QT Library, she said, "I wanted to build a space to belong."

Thanks Eve for all you have already done! We can't wait for you to succeed in your new role. 🥳

If you don't already know her, Eve is a huge reason that the #QTLibrary functions.

Besides her incredible work ethic, Eve has been a reliable team member who enjoys being "really gay" and "wanted to do work that was real and gay," which we can really relate to.

Hi QTs! 📣 We have an exciting announcement 📣

For the first time in QT history, we have a paid employee! Congratulations are in order for our resident finance and paperwork connoisseur, Eve!

"When someone reads a book and sees a character who looks like them, loves like them, and lives a full vibrant life, that isn't just entertainment — it is permission. It is a mirror that says, "You are real, you have a lineage, and you belong here." 👏👏

A story and update from the QT LIbrary 🌧️🌈
December 5, 2025 at 4:24 PM
It's #GivingTuesday, and we'd like you to meet some very special people. Uh... I'm sorry, they're actually books 📚

You can give these books a permanent home by making a donation of ANY size to the QT Library today! https://loom.ly/mQH2k_0

6. Finally — and this is the easiest way to support us — is to follow and share! We're on most of the platforms so you can find us wherever you may be (which I guess is on BlueSky if you're seeing this...)
November 28, 2025 at 10:50 PM
5. The most vital part of #GivingTuesday is fundraising. We are in the middle of our From Seed to Shelf campaign and we are on our way to raising $100,000 for the future of the library, including a space to call our own. No donation is too small! secure.givelively.org/donate/92-39...

4. You should sign up for our newsletter if you haven't already! It's a great way to keep up to date on upcoming events and goings-on at the QT Library. Also it's cute. tinyurl.com/QTLibrarynews

3. We're always looking for volunteers to join our incredible team. We already have dozens of artists, librarians, book lovers, nerds, and more helping us build what we think is a pretty great future

(Social media manager note: Volunteering is great, can confirm! 🤫)

2. If you can't make it to Porter Square Books or want to add to our 3,000-book collection, you can select a title from our @bookshop.org wishlist or donate your new or well-loved queer and trans books: www.qtlibrary.org/books

1. If you're planning to start your holiday shopping, our dear friends at @portersqbooks.bsky.social are donating 10% of the proceeds on Dec. 2 from 12-8 PM to local nonprofits, including the QT Library!

As we countdown to our end of year party, we fondly remember all the love we experienced at our celebration last year. ❄️

Games, crafts, a raffle, and great vibes really helped carry us through 2025 💜

#TransgenderAwarenessWeek is over, but it's always time for some trans books in your life. 🏳️‍⚧️

That's the idea we took into our virtual Trans YA Book Club. We've collected the books we've picked so far and put them into this handy post for you, along with some bonus recs.
November 21, 2025 at 2:06 PM
🧑‍🌾We've been slowly, deliberately planting the seeds for the QT Library's future through these programs, and we're honored by everybody who's joined us so far.

And now is the perfect time to help us continue our work with a book or dollar donation! secure.givelively.org/donate/92-39...
November 19, 2025 at 3:59 PM
🌱 What started as the dream of four people has already blossomed into a vibrant community. We may not have a physical location (yet) but we held our very first Pride event this year, numerous virtual book clubs, multiple author talks, affinity groups, and a whole lot more.
November 19, 2025 at 3:57 PM
BIG NEWS. We reached the first $10K milestone. Thank you to everybody who helped us get there. We see you, we love you 💜
November 19, 2025 at 3:57 PM
UPDATE: We are in the middle of our annual campaign and are just $66 AWAY from reaching $10K raised. Those are real numbers!

You can help bring us one step closer to the LGBTQIA+ library and community space of our dreams with a donation of any size! secure.givelively.org/donate/92-39...
November 18, 2025 at 3:16 PM
It's been quite the year, and through it all, the QT Library has survived and thrived. We all are still here!

That's why we're still celebrating 2025. 🥳 Join us at More Than Words in Boston for a great afternoon of games, vibes, friends, and raffles! RSVP 👉 https://loom.ly/wTnRbac
