LambdaLiterary.org, the online publication of the Lambda Literary Foundation, has started a column featuring interviews with LGBTIQA librarians and the work that they do to select and promote LGBTIQ materials at their libraries.
Rachel Wexelbaum's column is called Confessions of a Librarian. Her first posted interview is with Ellen Greenblatt; Ellen was the guest speaker at the 2007 meeting of SLA's GLBT Issues Caucus. Ellen's new book, Serving LGBTIQ Library and Archives Users: Essays on Outreach, Service, Collections and Access, will be published soon.
The second interviewed author, Laurie Sperling, talks about her work new LGBTIQ titles for children and teens and about health literacy outreach to LGBTIQ seniors.
