We are so proud to celebrate LGBT+ History Month across our Libraries this month. Take a browse at our displays and reading nooks (📸👌 @ Bute Library) when you visit, showcasing the people and movements that have pushed equalities forward 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #LGBTHM22
We've passed the baton to our @EnfysCardiff staff and @lgbtcardiff students to select an individual who means a lot to them on the theme 'Politics in Art'. We'll showcase these picks throughout the month and match each selection with a resource from our collections! #LGBTHM22
Our first suggestion comes from our very own Frankie who has added Tove Jansson as his selection for our list. 'Discovered Queer Desires: Rereading Same-Sex Sexuality from Finnish and Estonian Life Stories of the 1990s' is our paired e-resource: librarysearch.cardiff.ac.uk/permalink/44WH… #LGBTHM22 Tove's beautiful bisexual quote is "I always fell in lo
Big thanks to Em for suggesting Bayard Rustin, the openly gay civil rights strategist and spiritual singer, to be added to our list.

Sound up for Rustin's 1952 spiritual rendition of 'Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen' #LGBTHM22

Many of Russell's TV shows are available on our @cardiffuni Box of Broadcasts subscription, including Cucumber🥒 here: learningonscreen.ac.uk/ondemand/playl… #LGBTHM22 Andy's quote - "Russell T. Davies has done more than al
Next to our @EnfysCardiff chair Karen, who has offered Laverne Cox as her first suggestion. Perfectly paired with this Guardian article 'Disclosure: behind Laverne Cox's Netflix documentary on trans representation': theguardian.com/film/2020/jun/… #LGBTHM22

Jan 31
As the new semester begins, and many more of you find your way back on to campus this week (some for the very first time) we are going to reintroduce you to our library sites on our social media.

Yes that's right, sound on 🔊 for a bitesized walkthrough THREAD 🧵...
First up - it's open 24/7, it won a Concrete Society Award in 1976 for 'outstanding merit in the use of concrete' and houses more subject areas than we can fit into this tweet. The grande dame on campus - it's the ASSL.
All of our @cardiffuni libraries are open to everyone and there's no need to book your visit in advance. Shelves can be browsed, the wifi is a-flowing and we have computers and printing across all sites. More vids to follow throughout the week 📽️.
