The Sitting Room:   A Community Library

BOOK DONATION POLICY

Picture
We understand you have books by or about women you could give us.  However, we are overloaded with cartons in storage and are very clear about what books we need for the library.   Our main purpose is to provide a resource and reference archive that does not duplicate what is readily available elsewhere. 

So do donate those latest novels to your local library sale, or sell them and donate the money to the Sitting Room.

From time to time we will seek particular types of books to fill a gap.  Currently we are seeking books in the following categories:

Graphic novels by women, for a new collection
Women artists, including photographers
, architects, dancers, choreographers, musicians, and anyone         else you would put in the artist category  
International fiction and poetry in translation
Biography, preferably the most recent or expert on the subject

Recent books about Feminist Theory (2000 year publications and beyond)
Local writers, of all genders
Plays by women

If you have such books, please bring them to the Sitting Room. 






All are welcome to our events and library!
