Have Questions?
Where can I find the Lavender Collection?

Our LBGTQ collection does not live at one branch. You can request any item from the collection using our catalog and have it delivered to the branch that is most convenient for you.

What if you don’t have a book in the collection that I’m looking for?

You can recommend a title for us to consider or see if it’s available at Lavender Library.

Can I use my preferred name on my Library card account?

Yes. Stop by any library, show us your ID, let us know your preferred name and we'll make that change on your account.
