How are queer archives created? How do we organize and describe them? This panel discussion will explore these questions and more by bringing together archivists, curators, and librarians from institutions focused on LGBT history to discuss the challenges and successes of curating their queer collections. Joining us will be moderator A. Wynn Eakins, Library Company Reading Room Assistant, and Panelists John Anderies, Director of the John J. Wilcox, Jr. Archives at the William Way Community Center; Krü Maekdo, Founder of the Black Lesbian Archives; K.J. Rawson, Project Director at the Digital Transgender Archive; and Em Ricciardi, LGBTQ+ Subject Specialist at the Library Company.
