Collection Development Guidelines

"Materials in this collecting area document pre-Stonewall gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender life and culture, as well as the historical and contemporary Milwaukee-area LGBT community. Materials in this area are generally published before 1969, with the exception of local publications and pre-Stonewall autobiographical experiences. There is a particular emphasis on gay and lesbian fiction, especially pulp fiction and romance novels. Developed through gift and purchase."
