MSU LGBT Special Collections Resources
Within the Michigan State University libraries, there exists extensive collections, archives, papers, magazines, clippings, audio, and letters that tell hundreds of stories of the queer community all around Michigan. This resource is made for the MSU student and faculty community, as well as any interested visitor or researcher that can sift for hours through this vast collection through online finding aids, glossaries, guides and tutorials, or with the help of an outreach librarian. Librarian Eli Landaverde can be contacted at elandav@msu.edu. In-person appointments can be made Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays 10am - 4pm through MSU's website (3 business days recommended in advance) or one can visit during open hours which vary by library and collection. Materials can only be used inside of the reading room and cannot be checked out. Further, MSU's library also provides services such as passport services, information literacy librarians, assistive listening devices, and motorized carts that can be used to move around the library's physical premises.
