Monthly community library in Darwin for LGBTQI community – happens on the second Sunday of each month
In a climate where mould will get to books sooner than readers, and where there is no dedicated LGBTI bookstore, Books Gone Wilde is a way for book owners to be book lenders, with the overall aim of enhancing the Darwin LGBTI community.
Books Gone Wilde is a community library in that it temporally borrows your books, and temporally lends them to others in Darwin. The books to be borrowed are lgbtqi history, politics, fiction, non-fiction, well-being, sex, romance. No late fees :)
Books (over 300+): http://

There is a $2 annual membership, free if you are under 18.
How it works
Step 1: look at your bookshelf. If you see lots of great LGBTI books that you think others in Darwin would benefit from reading, consider lending them to Books Gone Wilde for a few months. If you look at your bookshelf and see not a lot, consider borrowing from Books Gone Wilde.
Step 2: visit the stall at the Nightcliff markets on the second Sunday of any month between 9-1pm, sign up for a membership of $2, lend or borrow books.
Although this is called a library it is not affiliated with formal libraries in Darwin/NT.
