New thread for community based LGBT libraries.

Please submit other ideas for name of a group for folks working, volunteering, and supporting community based LGBT libraries.

A proposal to form a Facebook group and work towards a face-to-face gathering, but we need a name! So far, the best I have come up with is:
Equality Libraries Serving Everyone (ELSE)

How about Queer Community Libraries (QCL) for the FB page? "ELSE" is ok but too ambiguous, don't you think?

Equality Forum http://www.equalityforum.com/index.cfm has offered to have us meet in conjunction with their meeting in Philadelphia May 3 - 6, 2012.

I like initials that actually spell something so was trying various combinations.

Personally, I'd prefer something with one of the following words or variations there on: Rainbow, Pride, Lavender, Equality, Out. Thought about using a famous person but that didn't really gel with me.

How about: Pride Community Libraries (PCL would be pronounced pickle) or

for alliteration: Rainbow Reading Resources or Lavender Lending Libraries

May 2012 is far enough away to give us time to plan and thanks to the Equality Forum.

New Facebook Page --
Pride Community Libraries is a networking page for LGBT libraries based in LGBT Community Centers and independent LGBT libraries so that we can share information, resources, ideas, and generally connect to each other.

Please "Like" us so those of us in community based LGBT libraries can connect to each other.
