THE EVOLUTION OF LGBTQIA+ REPRESENTATION IN PICTURE BOOKS

Posted onAuthorsingram


From the past queer coding of Lobel’s Frog and Toad to current books about trans children, representation of LGBTQIA+ characters in picture books has grown over the years.

Join LILPA as we explore and share past and present portrayals of the rainbow
community in picture books!

LGBTQIA+ Programs & Programmers Database

Posted onAuthorsingram

At the Long Island Library Pride Alliance’s General Membership Meeting in January, it was shared that library staff members would like to know what programs and/or programmers others have had for LGBTQIA+ programming in Long Island libraries. We have put together a form (link on the attached flyer) for everyone to share their programs/programmers. This can be a program you created in house or a program that was run with an outside programmer. We would like to create a living database for staff members to access when they are looking for programming ideas.

Thank you for helping us in this endeavor.
Have a wonderful day,
