Trial access: Additional Collections in the Archives of Sexuality & Gender LGBTQ History and Culture since 1940
University of Nottingham Libraries have ongoing access to Gale’s Archives of Sexuality and Gender: LGBTQ History and Culture since 1940, Part I. To mark LGBT+ History Month 2020, we’ve arranged trial access to two further collections within the archive. The trial runs until 4 March.
About the Archives
The Archives connect students and researchers to the rich history of sexuality and gender. Drawn from hundreds of institutions and organisations, from major international bodies to local grassroots initiatives, the documents in illuminate the experiences of LGBTQ individuals and groups of different races, ethnicities, ages, religions, political orientations and geographical locations. There is also significant coverage of feminism and women’s rights campaigns and concerns during this period.
