— publications —

The Library publishes both hand-assembled zines and printed books, including our ongoing projects The Vineyard and x/y: a junk drawer of trans voices, various one-offs, and our yearly themed Halloween horror anthology.

​​

In terms of what we publish, the Library seeks stories, prose, poetry, essays, and art that helps to craft a radical vision of a more vibrant world beyond the bleak expectations of our current social reality—whatever that may look like to you. 

​​

As a matter of principle, we only charge for physical books and actual real life merchandise to account for labor, printing and production costs, ect and also hopefully eventually getting to the point where we are making more money than we're losing doing this. There's no reason you should have to pay a fee to access a digital file of a book (or a movie, or an audiobook, ect.) ever, and any media company who tells you otherwise are gormless hucksters who would sell their own mothers for a nickel. We are a library, and that means that nothing we publish will ever be behind a paywall. By that same token, we could not exist without the generous patronage of our readers and audiences. Please note that at present, all orders and mailed hard copies are fulfilled by a small group of unpaid volunteers which means that sometimes we are unable to be as speedy as we'd wish and that sometimes things slip through the cracks. While it sometimes takes us a while to catch up on mailing, we are committed to getting our publications into the hands of each of our patrons. If you're expecting a package from us and haven't received it, please contact us at dionysianpubliclibrary@gmail.com and we'll be in touch regarding the delivery. ​​
