Donate Books and DVDs

Donate Books and DVDs to Q Library

Donations of new or gently used LGBTQ-related books and DVDs are another crucial way to support the library’s operations and funding structure. As a non-profit library without public support, we rely solely on individuals like you to maintain our budget each year. Your ongoing donations provide valuable resources to the Library and the LGBTQ+ community in the Twin Cities. If we already have a book or DVD in our collection, we will sell it at the Library’s Pride or annual book sales.

Tax Deductible

Your donations are fully tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. Just drop off your donations to the library, and complete a donation form.

While we value all literature, our library has a specific focus on LGBTQ+ literature and media.  Therefore, acceptable donations must meet the one or more of the following criteria:

  • LGBTQ+ in content
  • Written by an author identified as LGBTQ+
  • Directed by or starring an LGBTQ+ identified person(s)
  • The library no longer accepts VHS tapes even if they are match one of the above criteria
