mortallycoiled:

I’m currently taking the first steps in embarking upon a bit of a ‘feminist project’ and I thought that before I did so I should probably brush up on some of my reading. I wasn’t expecting much from my local library but this is a bit disgraceful.

Alfreton is the town in Derbyshire that I live in. It has a population of roughly 22,000 and it’s library does not contain a single book searchable under the subject reading of feminism. There is not even a copy of pretty damn mainstream texts like The Second Sex or The Female Eunuch. How is this ok?

I am heartily disappointed
