MEREDITH KOSTEK AT LEWIS & CLARK LAW SCHOOL, BOLEY LAW LIBRARY
Starting in February, Boley Law Library has been sponsoring student organizations/activities with virtual bookshelves and added information about the student organization. The virtual bookshelf is a simple libguide with a carousel of some of the books on our homepage (at the middle bottom).
This fairly simple project gives visibility to a student group, like OutLaw, and support for digging deeper into a subject. I’m happy to answer questions if there’s interest.
“OutLaw: Lewis & Clark OutLaw provides a forum for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning law students and their allies to meet, exchange ideas, share experiences, build community, and bring pertinent legal and political issues of the LGBTQ+ community to the L&C law campus via panels, social events, lectures, trainings, and forums. (Organization’s description)“
ERICKA BRUNSON AT DESCHUTES PUBLIC LIBRARY
Large events in Central Oregon this year are still virtual. At Deschutes Public Library, I created a resource list of links to booklists (for kids, teens and adults), local organizations, small events during Pride month, and partner information for the LGBTQIA+ communities and allies. It’s small (hopefully next year we can do more) but it’s something!
If you have any suggestions for additions, I would love to hear them.
MARILYN KEARNEY AT TILLAMOOK COUNTY LIBRARY
I’m the new teen librarian at Tillamook County Library, so I set up our first Pride display in years! I’m also working to increase the queer diversity of our collection, and, as an out nonbinary lesbian, I’m making them feel welcome just by being myself!
