LGBTQ+ Pride Month
LGBTQ+ Pride Month, observed in June, commemorates the contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender culture and community.
Celebrating Pride Month
Fort Vancouver Regional Libraries celebrates LGBTQ+ Pride Month each June. Established to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in New York City, this observance recognizes the contributions, creativity, and traditions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people.
The library offers books, resources, and programs that celebrate diverse identities, share stories, and foster connection across our region.

Help Us Grow & Improve
We are always looking for ways to expand our collections and programming so that they are interesting and inclusive to the communities we serve. To this end, our community is encouraged to submit original programming and resource selections for us to consider.
Have ideas from programming? We’d love to hear suggestions for cultural events, educational presentations, book discussions, and community celebrations.
Know of great resources we should add? Help us discover books, films, music, or other materials that would enrich our collections.
