Season II
In 2024, the Library presented its second full publishing season, consisting of two themed anthologies and two issues each of our ongoing zines The Vineyard and x/y: a junk drawer of trans voices.
​
​​
​
In the spring, we were given the honor to partner with Western Michigan University's Office for Sustainability to print and produce Propagate: Fruits from the Garden, released on Midsommar. The book features poetry, nonfiction, and other work exploring ecological themes and our relationship to the land from thirty-three creatives and was edited by Ju Collins, Fritz Dries, and v.f. thompson. Propagate is both a battle cry and a love letter to the Earth, a grenade thrown in the face of Armageddon.

Propagate: Fruits from the Garden
Spectacular, Spectacular!: An Anthology
of Circensian Horror
​​
​
In October, we unleashed the second in our series of themed Halloween horror anthologies, Spectacular, Spectacular!: An Anthology of Circensian Horror. From acrobats to aliens, mermaids to murderers, fortune tellers to fairies, step into the big top and witness over twenty acts of sensational, death-dealing terror from twenty storytellers and poets. Acting as an experiment in weaving together print and performance, a fiendish freakshow awaits, so look into the mirror, face your fears, and send in the clowns. The show is waiting.
