The Nonbinarian Bookstore is a trans+ owned exclusively queer bookstore in Brooklyn, NY, that functions as a mutual aid initiative. It distributes free queer books to areas lacking access to such resources, known as book deserts. The bookstore is volunteer-powered, offering a variety of new, used, and free books along with gifts and resources.

Established from a mobile mutual aid initiative called The Nonbinarian Book Bike in 2022, this bookstore serves as a community space and carries out its mission all year round. The Book Bike operates from April to September, providing free distribution of queer books. During the off-season, it is stationed at the bookstore to continue its outreach efforts.

The Nonbinarian Bookstore operates on the principle of solidarity, emphasizing trade exchange, volunteer support, and partnerships. It is community-funded and relies on collective sourcing to sustain its operations. The bookstore and the Book Bike are dedicated to empowering queer and trans individuals by providing much-needed resources and affirming representation.
