Quatrefoil Library

Donors, Patrons, Volunteers, & Friends of the Library,

Quatrefoil Library is celebrating 40 years of being a champion of the LGBTQIA+ community by making supportive resources available to members at no cost! Starting from 1,300 materials in circulation in 1986, our professional librarians have now curated a collection of over 26,000 unique items, including physical books, zines, periodicals, e-books, and audiobooks.  

We have expanded from 400 members in 2020 to over 4,000 patrons now, who are all supported by our dedicated group of Library volunteers. The launch of free membership and our digital collection of e-books and audiobooks in 2021 prompted tremendous membership growth. The continued generosity of our community’s volunteer time and donor contributions have allowed us to center Quatrefoil’s values of equity and access as we strive to reach as many people as possible through these free resources.

Your financial support of institutions like Quatrefoil allows our community to find meaningful narratives and connections. As one Q volunteer put it: 

“This place has given me access to great stories, amazing friends, and a community that I would never have found otherwise.” 

Please consider donating today to help us hit our 2026 fundraising goal of $40,000 for 40 years so we can continue to make LGBTQIA+ materials accessible for decades to come.
