Reading lists
New Year, Old Hackney
Our reading list this January has been curated in collaboration with Hackney Museum. The museum cares for over 9,000 objects, artworks, images and oral history recordings, and inspires many visitors every year – from schoolchildren to celebrated authors.
We have always been here: Trans+ History Week
Trans+ History Week is a week to learn and celebrate the millennia-old history of transgender, non-binary, gender-diverse and Intersex people.
To honour the first Trans+ History week in 2024, Hackney Libraries are celebrating trans+ authors across the borough and beyond. We are celebrating Trans+ histories both real and fictional, figures who made it and those who are making it right now!
