Queer Cafe - Jackson Library Weds 11/13 from 10 am - Noon

In the Jackson Library Jewish Reading Room on Wednesday, November 13th, from 10 am - Noon.  

Jackson Library will be holding an event in support of UNCG LGBTQ+ students, called Queer Cafe! This idea was inspired by a similar event held at the New York Institute of Technology for National Coming Out Day. It is a way for LGBTQ+ identifying students to have a safe space to meet and interact with their LGBTQ+ librarians over coffee and snacks. Queer Cafe will mainly be a way for our students to see who we are (and that we exist) while we drink coffee and share some of our favorite resources (books, zines, etc.). It’s going to be very casual! This will not be a panel; participants won’t have to share anything about themselves that they don’t want to.

The event will take place in Jackson Library Tower room 974 (Jewish Reading Room) on Wednesday, November 13th, from 10 am - Noon.  

We hope to promote visibility by allowing LGTBQ+ library employees to be out and vulnerable to students who share similar experiences. With this in mind, we kindly ask that folks who do not identify under the Queer Umbrella sit this event out. We welcome support from our allies in ways other than attendance (marketing, spreading the word, etc)
