Description
June 17 Vancouver The Gay Interest Group of the CLA, formed in February 1980 to facilitate access to and increase public awareness of gay materials, held its first meeting at the CLA's annual convention. The group, coordinated by Tom Flemming, sponsored a resolution urging libraries to provide materials and information that promote an understanding of homosexuality, which was carried. One of the Gay Interest Group's first projects was to publish A Brief Preliminary Guide to Recommended Reading Matter on Homosexuality (English and French Titles), coordinated by Ted Millward.
