Manga from the indie publisher Glacier Bay Books that are in the MAL database.
Glacier Bay Books specialize in swlf published (doujin) manga, small press manga and alt manga - all of which are artistic and have a morw contemporary approach to these subjects than most manga readers are used to and would expect.
Since most of their manga are self published or small press, most are not availabpe on MAL. So this list will have only the ones that are on MAL. I will update this list every time a new title from their catalogue is added, or a new one that is on MAL's DB is announced.

On a personal note, they are probably my favorite English manga publisher, and I hughly recommend you to check them out. They will make you rethink everything you knew about manga.

A stack combining short 1, 2 and 3 volume series.

Spanning 6 decades, this diverse set of Shōjo and Josei manga is very much worth reading…according to some random guy on the internet.
This list includes both short and long series. I’ve sorted them by length (with ongoing series at the bottom regardless of current length).
All series are either fully scanned or officially licensed except for Dōbutsu no Oishasan, which only has a few chapters left in its scanlation.

Just a list of Shojo and Josei manga that began publishing before 1990 that have been officially published in english, although some are Out of Print or from defunct digital publishers and thus are no longer legally available.

I can't seem to add this one, but Sign wa V!/The V Sign! (1969) was officially published as well (https://myanimelist.net/manga/125803/Sign_wa_V)

This one isn't in the MyAnimeList database, but Pairazahda/Pairazada (1984) is legally published and available digitally in english (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07757Y1X9?ref_=dbs_m_cmx_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks)

(database entry: https://www.mangaupdates.com/series/yrzhtz5/pairazada)

Some Pre-1990s Shojo stories without database entries from Moto Hagio were published in the English Anthology "A Drunken Dream and Other Stories". These include Angel Mimic/Tenshi no Gitai (1984), Autumn Journey/Aki no Tabi (1971), and Girl on Porch with Puppy/Pochi de Shōjo ga Koinu to (1971).

Himitsu no Akko-chan was published in Japan in a Bilingual English edition intended to be an english-learning aide to japanese people.

The Shojo stories Plus 1 (1986) and Purple (1985) from Ciao magazine were published in english in Animerica Extra's Short Program Volume 1 Anthology which was later released in its own collected volume in the US (https://myanimelist.net/manga/1443/Short_Program).
