After Stonewall cash mob

As Xtra reported earlier this month, Ottawa’s pioneering queer bookstore After Stonewall is up for sale.

The industrious staff at PTS have organized a cash mob for tomorrow, Thursday, July 12, to assist the ailing After Stonewall and also benefit PTS’s Dr Kelly McGinnis Library.

The PTS library is specifically seeking newer titles (2002-2012) to add to their stockpile on the topics of queer families/parenting, queer children’s books, transgender literature, polyamory or non-monogamy, kink, queer partner violence and anti-racism or oppression.

If you’re seeking something for yourself or a donation for the Dr Kelly McGinnis Library, bank your bookworm bucks at After Stonewall tomorrow at 2pm.
