Pride Month: Young Adult Titles

One of the volunteer opportunities available for youth at TBPL is joining the Youth Action Council. This group meets monthly during the school year to discuss Library services, programs, and collections for teens. This May, the current YAC group went shopping at Chapters and these are just some of the titles they selected for purchase! I realized that this would make a great list for Pride Month as so many of the books they choose had LGBTQ2S+ representation. Another theme we discovered while going through these titles – music and musicians!
