The aim of this Reading List is to highlight many of the LGBT+ books, journal articles and resources including DVDs, picture books and comics within the Library. The list is in the Non Fiction section of the Big Read guide and includes a mixture of non fiction and fiction related to LGBT+.

However, the list is a little broader and more holistic than the Library and our collections! You can find information about the student support services at the University, relevant websites, glossaries and guides.
