Description

Review "Gender issues have expanded in recent years and become increasingly nuanced. Therefore, this collection of essays on gender studies resources, services and research from the librarianship perspective are especially welcome. While the focus remains feminist, masculinity and other gender identities are explored through meaningful processes. Chapters include both "traditional" aspects of gender studies, such as cataloging patriarchy and 'herstory' content analysis as well as innovative ways to voice under-represented gendered points of view through use of space, curation, and edit-a-thons. The reader will find in-depth field-proven strategies and useful resources for pro-actively and collaboratively addressing gender issues and promoting inclusivity."--Dr. Lesley S. J. Farmer, California State University Long Beach and ALISE Gender Issues SIG Chair; "As a university professor who taught gender studies turned librarian, I fully appreciate the depth and scope of this volume and believe it can provide something useful for all."--Su Epstein, Director, Saxton B. Little Free Library, Columbia, Connecticut; "In this remarkable collection of gender-focused chapters, the writers explore libraries as a vehicle to promote inclusion and acceptance."--Deloris J. Foxworth, School of Information Science, University of Kentucky; "Fulfills the wide expanse of gender-sensitive topics providing new insights and accessibility for the classroom."--Christine Redman-Waldeyer, Founder and Editor of Adanna, a journal for women, about women; "Gender studies in libraries is rarely examined to the extensive level of this anthology...it is evident that libraries are a strong catalyst for social justice and promoting inclusive spaces."--Jorge E. Perez, Digital Learning & Information Technology Librarian, Medical Library, Florida International University, Miami, Florida; "This book has something for everyone interested in gender studies: academic and public librarians, educators and activists, writers and readers--just pick your focus and listen to experts in each area speak from experience."--Robert Means, English Language & Literature Librarian, Brigham Young University. Product Description With the legalization of same-sex marriage and the explosion of LGBTQ news coverage in recent years, gender studies is a subject of intense interest in popular media and a part of the curriculum at many colleges. Libraries realize the importance of supporting the field yet many have difficulty finding resources and programming ideas. This book provides case studies and a range of innovative solutions for better meeting patron needs. Twenty-seven chapters are arranged into sections covering Research and Library Instruction, History and Herstory, Programming, Collections and Beyond, and Resources. About the Author Carol Smallwood, a recipient of multiple Pushcart nominations, is the author of journal articles as well as editor of numerous books including one in Poets & Writers Magazine List of Best Books for Writers. A Michigan resident, her experience includes school, public and special libraries.
