Call for Papers
Entries are invited for a reference book, Reader's Guide to
Lesbian and Gay Studies, to be published by Fitzroy Dearborn Publishers in Chicago. The
entries will describe the key secondary literature available in English on topics
important to l/g studies. The entries will ordinarily describe 10 book-length
studies on a particular topic, policy, historical period, person, school of thought,
etc. As necessary, article-length studies can be described and evaluated as well.
The entries will ordinarily run to 1000 words, though more important topics can
certainly be longer. Honoraria will ordinarily be $50 (US), though longer entries
will carry larger amounts. Faculty members and advanced graduate students are
invited to write entries. Further details of this project are available upon request.
If you believe an entry ought to be included, please contact the editor
at the
email address below. Bear in mind, that there ought to be sufficient
existing
literature to support an entry. Sometimes, interesting topics are not well studied
and may be, therefore, inappropriate for this volume.
For further information, please contact
Timothy F. Murphy, editor, at tmurphy@uic.edu
or
Rob Salkin, publisher, at fitzroy@megsinet.net

Gay & Lesbian Abstracts is an essential research tool for all college, university,
and public libraries; GLBT organizations, community centers, and student groups.
Gay & Lesbian Abstracts offers a balanced, objective, and thorough review of popular as well as scholarly print, electronic,
and Internet publications and press of interest to the gay, lesbian,
bisexual, and transgendered community. Of paramount importance is the coverage of history, culture, interests, and concerns of the
GLBT community. Gay & Lesbian Abstracts is an excellent guide to the ongoing intellectual and scholarly discussion of subjects
which reflect the diversity of the GLBT community. Gay & Lesbian Abstracts primarily indexes publications addressing the social, legal, economic,
political, cultural, historical, literary, and health concerns of the GLBT community, including coverage of sexual
activity between consenting adults; other subject areas are covered peripherally. Gay & Lesbian Abstracts indexes a variety of
materials including non-fiction, reviews, and essays - excluding only fiction and erotica. Nearly 600 sources include: journals,
magazines, newspapers, newsletters, bulletins, books, proceedings, reports, dissertations, studies, web sites, and
multi-media publications.

From
ground breaking research on giving and volunteering to myth-busting analysis of the
economic status of lesbians and gay men, IGLSS leads the way in research and analysis on
questions important to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered Americans. IGLSS is a national
independent public policy think tank. In its policy journal, Angles, the
Institute reports the latest findings on such critical issues as evidence of employment
discrimination and benefits of allowing same-sex couples to marry.
Here on the IGLSS
web site, you'll find the Institute's most current publications as well as opportunities

The E-Directory is utilitarian: it is designed to help
scholars collaborate. While the E-Directory is not a discussion group, it facilitates
extensive private collaboration. It lists only those with e-mail accounts and currently
willing to receive mail. No one may participate without sending the simple entry form.
There is a public list
of persons who have agreed to have their entries posted publicly. They represent about 60%
of the scholars in the full E-Directory. The full E-Directory, with 800+ entries, is
available only to those who agree to be listed.
