+ From Punk-Ass Book Jockey, you guys: “I’m studying Library and Information Science at San Jose State University and am working on a research paper about Autostraddle as an Information Community. That means I’m researching the way AS works as a site of information circulation and interaction.

We’re currently calling for submissions of content and I would love to get more queer & trans voices on board! No prior experience necessary.” Submit and spread the good word!
