LGBTQ at NYPL
Introductions
Hi, I’m Jason Baumann and I’m editor of the LGBT @ NYPL blog and staff manager of the Library’s LGBT Committee. Professionally, I’m Special Assistant to the Director of the New York Public Library and teach courses in education outreach and cultural diversity at Pratt Institute’s School of Library and Information Science. In addition to my work in public libraries, I also have a long-time commitment to LGBT activism. I was an active member of ACT-UP and Queer Nation, a performer with Lavender Light: The Black and People of All Colors Lesbian and Gay Gospel Choir, and have been involved for many years with the New York City circle of the Radical Faeries. I’m currently pursuing my PhD in English at the CUNY Graduate Center with a concentration in Gay and Lesbian Studies. I look forward to connecting you with the LGBT materials, programs, and expertise that the Library has to offer. If you have any questions, you can contact me at jbaumann@nypl.org.
