QueerFenster

Prefer colourful to grey? Our central Berlin library's "QueerFenster" offers a wide selection of queer literature and media as well as information about LGBTQIA related topics.

LGBTIQ+ media at the Berlin Central and Regional Library (ZLB)

Showing presence all year round, and being colourful and diverse not only at special events – that is how we at the ZLB see our responsibility towards the LGBTIQ+ community, and that is why we have a permanent media presentation at the America Memorial Library: our "QueerFenster"!

It is a kind of "window" where we show new acquisitions and classics, and highlight various, changing topics relevant to the queer community. At the same time, we offer community representatives a platform for introducing themselves and their work.

Do you have any questions about our "QueerFenster", or would you like to suggest a topic? Or would you like to recommend specific media? Please write to us at queerfenster@zlb.de.

The current "QueerFenster" focuses on the topic of emancipation. Our cooperation partner is Quarteera e.V
