About the Quatrefoil Library

Quatrefoil Library fosters GLBT community, culture and camaraderie through literature and media in a welcoming place. By collecting and lending queer creative output we nurture and cultivate the value of the whole community. We continually strive to integrate our historical presence into new areas as communication and technologies evolve.

Collections include books, videos, DVDs, and sound recordings, which members may check out. We also have a large collection of non-circulating periodicals. More about Our Materials...

Read about the history of Quatrefoil Library in a newly-released book written by Adam Keim and published by the Friends of the Bill of Rights Foundation. It is available to read, or freely download and print: History of the Quatrefoil Library [2.4MB]. Copies of the book are also available in the Library's collection and may be checked out by current members.
