GLBTRT Social & Freedom to Read Foundation Author Event
Please join ALA’s GLBT Roundtable and the Freedom to Read Foundation at the Community Church of Boston during Midwinter 2010 to socialize with other GLBT librarians, hear a reading from award-winning writers Lesléa Newman (author of Heather Has Two Mommies) and Michael Willhoite (Daddy’s Roommate), and help support a wonderful and vibrant congregation. This event is free and open to all, but donations are most welcome. The Community Church has a very small resource library that is in desperate need of useful and current titles for LGBT youth. Please bring a book with you to donate; it will be very much appreciated by the Church, and a fine way to say thank you for letting us use their space.
