Celebrating Pride Month at the Gosall Library!
June is Pride Month, a time to honour and celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and their contributions to our society. At the Gosall library, we believe in fostering an inclusive environment where everyone feels welcomed and valued. This month, we’re excited to showcase a diverse collection of books and resources that highlight LGBTQ+ voices and stories. Take a look through our curated selection of LGBTQ+ literature, featuring both fiction and non-fiction works that span various genres and experiences.
Pride Month is more than just a celebration; it’s a reminder of the ongoing fight for equality and the importance of representation. By amplifying LGBTQ+ voices, we aim to create a space where everyone can see themselves reflected in the stories we share.
We invite you to visit the Gosall Library this June to explore our Pride Month offerings and join us in celebrating love, diversity, and inclusion. Happy Pride!
