As a private, nonprofit library open to the public that does not receive public funding, we rely on individuals like you to meet our annual budget. To ensure the LGBTQ+ community has continued free access to the latest digital and physical resources, and to support our collection development, programming that nourishes our community, and facility maintenance, we need your help. Your contribution ensures that the newest queer materials remain accessible, supports a welcoming environment for LGBTQ+ gatherings, and helps maintain our community space. Your support truly makes a difference!
All gifts are fully tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

Donate Materials to Quatrefoil Library

Quatrefoil Library welcomes donations of books, DVDs, periodicals, and other materials that support our mission to provide a rich collection of LGBTQ+ resources. We are deeply grateful to those who think of us when considering how best to preserve and share their personal collections.

Quatrefoil Library originated from the personal collection of our founders, which became the cornerstone of our library.

Due to space and staffing considerations, donations of more than six items require completion of our Donation Approval Request Form, which will be reviewed by our Collection Management Committee. This ensures we can assess whether the materials align with our Collection Development Policy, meet the needs of our community, and that we have the capacity to process them.

LGBTQ+ themed content
Created by LGBTQ+ writers
Directed by or featuring LGBTQ+ individuals

Please note: We kindly ask that donors refrain from submitting materials in poor condition, out of respect for the health of our collection. The library no longer accepts VHS tapes even if they are match one of the above criteria.

To begin the donation process, please complete the Donation Approval Request Form. Should you have any issues or questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
