Hi, a small note from your local LGBTQIA+ library 💜

It’s Fuck ICE today, just like it was Fuck ICE yesterday, and just like it will be Fuck ICE tomorrow. No one is illegal on stolen land.

Like you, we’re devastated and furious. The QT Library stands with Minneapolis, Maine, and everywhere else being traumatized by ICE

We also stand with our partners locally and around the country in the fight against fascist, racist state violence – a violence that we are watching being wielded like a weapon against so many communities, including immigrant and Native American communities, in real time.

A true honor to be spotlighted by @bookriot.bsky.social in this breakdown of how to protect the right to read through the Horrors. We're only screaming a little. 😱💜 But seriously, there are a lot of great ideas here. Read the full thing! loom.ly/HJbyi7A

A screenshot from a Book riot article titled, 60-plus small tasks to defend the right to read: book censorship news, january 9, 2026. The screenshot says, "Help build the Q.T. Library, a queer library in Boston that aims to grant access to queer and trans literature. How can you help “build” the library? Donate money or books, if you’re able. If those are not in your budget, spread the word about the institution. You can also participate in their virtual Trans Y.A. book club."

Still remembering Shelf-ebration 💭 You all came out to #Boston's More Than Words in December to celebrate queer love and community. There were crafts, a QT Library toast, great speeches, and, of course, a lot of books. Stay tuned in 2026 for even more QT events! 📸 Adriana Arguijo Photography

A wooden board that says "Q.T. Library: Shelf-ebration" surrounded by green vines. There's a polaroid of people making a toast in a bookstore.

Two polaroids. One shows four people posing in front of a flower wreath against a bookshelf. Two are smiling. Two are on the floor doing silly poses. The other polaroid shows two people standing in front of that same bookshelf with their arms around each other smiling.

Two polaroids. One is of a person painting something at a table with crafts and paint on it. The other is of a group of people clapping and facing in the same direction.

Three polaroids. One shows a Q.T. Library handout that says "All ages are welcome" Another shows a Q.T. Library tote bag that says "read queer books." The last one shows a Pride flag in a small pot of flowers.

2026 isn't off to a great start, but we at the QT Library are trendsetters and think all of these things should be in for this year. It involves way more books, queer joy, and letting us be who we are without fear. 💭 What are you aspiring to be in 2026?

"What's in for 2026" on graph paper. There's also a polaroid of a Pride flag in a flower pot and a Q.T. Library stamp that says "approved" under it.

What's in for 2026: Pride Month all year long except for July, which is Wrath Month. Buying thousands of dollars worth of books. Adding more books by authors from marginalized communities to the T.B.R. shelf. Stitch and bitch sessions. There's also a polaroid of people at a table crafting.

What's in for 2026: Opening a pop-up. Existing in three dimensions. Having attainable goals that set you up for success. Reading more good books, not bad books. Reading books where queer characters have a nice time, you know? There's also a polaroid of two people around a Q.T. Library table chatting with somebody off screen.

What's in for 2026: Not being afraid to D.N.F books. Being inscrutable. Queer and trans people being able to live happily and openly WITHOUT FEAR, but written in very large letters. Staying hydrated. There's also a polaroid of four people standing in front of a bookshelf smiling, with two people on the ground.

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

To our queer and trans family. As we head into the holiday season and the world outside darkens both physically and politically, we want to take a moment to remind you that you are loved; that you are deserving of respect, safety, and the right to be whoever you want to be.

You’re a baddie; you’re our favorite; you’re a brilliant light in this dark and impossible world. The Q.T. Library stands with you.

For the next few weeks, remember to take care of yourselves, spend time in community and around those who love AND support you. Remember to drink water, take some deep breaths, and have compassion for yourself. Treat yourself to a few phone-free hours, maybe curl up with a good book.

We love you and we’ll see you in 2026. x.o.x.o all of us at the Q.T. Library.

QT Library @qtlibrary.org · 22/12/2025

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!

We hosted 44 programs. 3 author talks, 11 affinity group meetings, 20 book club meetings, 6 in-person events.
