Cork libraries member details changes ‘an important step’ in transgender inclusivity

'At the beginning of coming out, many trans people don't have anything with their name on it — and the first time seeing it printed is a powerful moment'

Libraries in Cork are offering to change the account details of people waiting on gender recognition certificates in order to mark Transgender Day of Visibility on March 31.

The initiative will see libraries offer an interim change of account details for any transgender or gender diverse person across Cork who is waiting on or has received their Gender Recognition Cert, which will be verified once libraries re-open.
