Lesbians on the Shelf
Glasgow Women’s Library is working towards relocation to Glasgow’s prestigious Mitchell Library, where it will re-launch as an accredited national resource in refurbished premises of excellence: a Women’s Library of Scotland. The Women on the Shelf initiative has been set up to raise vital funds for this refurbishment.
Because the Lesbian Archive is such an important part of the Library collection, we have launched the Lesbians on the Shelf to give you the opportunity to help build the future home of the Archive.
The entire collection, which is currently being catalogued by our newly appointed Archivist, will be fully accessible in a dedicated archive so that it will be preserved for generations to come, housed in the best environmental conditions and in premises of excellence.
You can help to preserve the future of the Lesbian Archives by joining the Lesbians on the Shelf fundraising campaign.
For just £10 you can sponsor a book from the collection – including such pulp classics as Stranger on Lesbos and Women’s Barracks – or for £100 you can sponsor a shelf and dedicate it to the woman of your choice as a unique gift and a lovely and lasting tribute.
We need your support! So put a Lesbian on the Shelf today!
