If you haven’t visited our display of books and DVDs for LGBT History Month there is still time. We look forward to seeing you in the welcome area of the library.
Why not have a look at one of our latest editions to stock? Good As You by Paul Flynn covers 30 years of gay life in Britain and includes “candid interviews from major protagonists, such as Kylie, Russell T Davies, Will Young, Holly Johnson and Lord Chris Smith, as well as the relative unknowns crucial to the gay community”.
This is a reminder that the Publications Team will not be adding any new research outputs to our internal records or to the repository from 5pm on Tuesday 26th February until 9am on Monday 11th March.
This is an essential step in our implementation of Worktribe’s Outputs module and will ensure that the process is as smooth as possible. This should not cause any problems in terms of our compliance with the REF Open Access requirements, as long as all researchers send us the accepted versions of their journal articles and conference papers as soon as possible after they have been accepted for publication.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused during this transition period and will let you know if there are any adjustments to the dates stated above. If you have any questions, please contact the repository librarian at g.r.bray@rgu.ac.uk
February is LGBT history month and during the month we will be highlighting some of our LGBT themed books and DVDs.
Among our recent additions to stock is Welsh rugby star Gareth Thomas’s autobiography Proud. Described by The Guardian as “achingly honest” it tells the story of Gareth’s struggle with his sexuality and what it was like to come out as a famous sportsman.
Pride & Joy: LGBTQ activists, icons and everyday heroes tells the stories of writers such as Emma Donoghue (author of Room which was subsequently made into an Oscar winning film) and everyday heroes like firefighters, scientists and business people being true to themselves and living their lives openly in the community.
