Search the Center Library using LibraryThing –
The LGBT Center has recently relocated its library listing to a new
website called LibraryThing. It has the listing of all our books and
is searchable by keyword, title, and/or author.
- Items may be used in the center, or checked out by anyone
with an active affiliation with the university.
- Books may be checked out for up to one month.
- Videos may be checked out for one week and a five dollar
deposit is required which is returned upon receipt of the video.
- Borrowers are responsible for all items that they check out,
and must fill out a check out form with a center employee prior
to borrowing the materials.
We have subscriptions to a variety of gay-related magazines,
including The Advocate, Curve, Out, and others. Bay Windows, New
England's weekly gay paper, is also delivered to the center as well
as a variety of locations on the Tufts campus.
Team Q
Team Q is a group of
students trained to speak about lesbian, gay, bisexual, and
transgender issues. The team makes these issues real for audiences
by sharing their personal stories as lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender, and allied students. Have Team Q speak in your
classroom to start a conversation on an LGBT related topic.
Tufts Queer History Project (TQHP)
The TQHP started as a Tufts Summer Scholars Research Project
proposed by the fifth Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Center
Director, Dona Yarbrough in 2006. Elena Mead, then a sophomore, was
awarded the research scholar grant and worked with the director on
the project. This website is the culmination of Elena's work. The
main objective of TQHP is to both reflect on the achievements and
challenges of the Tufts queer community, and to connect our past
with our present.
