The best way to search is to use the main search field (found on the library website). Using this field will search ALL of the library's databases, books, and other resources all at once, saving you lots of time.
You'll need to try a variety of search terms to find articles and items in the library catalog.
Use a * to broaden your search. For example, searching lesbian* as a keyword will return results for lesbian, lesbians, and lesbianism all at once.
Terms to try include:
gay
gay rights
lesbian*
queer*
queer studies
homosexual*
bisexual*
transgender*
transsexual*
intersex
