Read with Pride

Discover your library collections & read with PRIDE!

Alongside all of the academic materials to support curriculum in the library collections, we also have an extensive range of materials on a wide range of LGBTQI issues as well as materials representing voices of the community, stories, perspectives, lived experiences and more.

This list has been developed during Covid-19 so the focus is on e-resources in the first instance but Click & Collect Services are available to access physical collections too.

How to use this list

Access e-books from our collections.  If you are asked for a login:

Student Login: Use your student number, not email, and your AIT login.
Staff Login: Use your staff username, not email, and your AIT login.

How to help develop this list

The library team will continue to develop ways to help students and staff discover our collections and find material that informs, entertains and inspires. Email library@ait.ie if you would like to make a suggestion or use our Suggested Purchase option from your library account on the library catalogue.
