The Sophia Library is a public feminist library of around 3000 items, including books, DVDs and CDs. Subject areas include: feminist theology, spiritual life, meditation and ritual, contemporary social issues and women’s health, psychology and world religions. We also have fiction, art books, poetry and biography with a growing focus on First Nations writing.

Membership is open to the general public and current financial members of Sophia.

Afternoon Tea in the Library.
Where: Sophia
When: August 16
Time: 2.00-4.30pm
Cost: $10 members $8

Our guest writer this year is Adelaide writer Dinali Virasinghe who explores themes of purpose, identity, diversity and love in her reflective and honest poetry and prose. Dinali’s experience of moving to Australia at a young age, her travels as an adult and work as an environmentalist have shaped her ideas about belonging and how to live well in a world falling apart.

Pop-Up Book Sale

There is usually a pop-up book sale in the main Sophia meeting room. Items are $2 each and are changed every few weeks.

‘The Sophia Library is a welcoming space and has items you’d be lucky to find in other libraries’
