Adopt-a-Bookshelf!


Since settling into our new home in Over the Rhine, the Ohio Lesbian Archives has been on a mission to transform our space into a haven for historical LGBTQ+ preservation and celebration. We’ve already been able to shelf a wonderful portion of our robust collection. However, we still have over 38 boxes of books, waiting eagerly to be shelved and shared with the community. We need your help to make this vision a reality!

Imagine the impact of your support: by donating $325 towards a new shelf, you’ll not only help us house our expanding collection but also leave a lasting mark on our archives. Your generosity will be commemorated with a dedication of your choice proudly displayed at the top of a bookshelf, honoring your commitment to preserving our history.

As we approach our 35th anniversary in September, let’s make this milestone unforgettable. Together, we aim to purchase eight new shelves, finally liberating our books from the confines of closets and bringing them into the light where they belong.

Join us in celebrating our past, present, and future by contributing to our shelves today. Together, we’ll ensure that the Ohio Lesbian Archives continues to inspire and educate for generations to come. Donate now and be a part of our story! 🌈📖

Thank you for donating!
