The British Library has an extensive collection of lesbian and gay-related material spanning almost five centuries. From The Yokel’s Preceptor, an 1850s guide to ‘low-life’ activities in London, to recent magazines, it is surely the largest and most comprehensive collection of the genre in any research institution.  

An illustrated talk for Lesbian Gay Bisexual Trans History Month by Bart Smith of the Library’s Humanities Reference Service. The event will be chaired by Amy Lame, BBC Radio London presenter and co-founder and host of the legendary club Duckie.

This talk will include content of an adult nature.

Bar open from 17.30

In association with Camden LGBT Forum History Month.
