The Old and the Prudish

 

Our very own Tiffany Henry and two co-authors have published an article in the open access journal "In the Library With the Lead Pipe." This excellent article, "The Old and the Prudish: An Examination of Sex, Sexuality, and Queerness in Library of Congress Classification," is a must read for those interested in EDI work in critical cataloging. 

As quoted from the brief summary at the beginning of the article: "We aim for readers to realize what it means for structural inequity to exist in LCC, the harm that that structural inequity can impart, and to take a critical eye to the foundational classification used within numerous libraries, beyond the subject headings overlaying and masking that classification."
