Although our physical locations are still closed, The Seattle Public Library is celebrating Pride and bringing Pride-related Library services to the community. Check out our LGBTQ Staff Picks, Rainbow Story Times, podcasts and more at spl.org/pride.

The Library is a place for everyone, including people of all gender identities. We work with local organizations and community members to offer programming for LGBTQ patrons and allies. We also host engaging discussions on issues affecting LGBTQ communities and offer resources to build knowledge and record local history.
