Happy Pride Month

Posted on Posted in Ohio, Social Justice

For PRIDE Month, we want to highlight LGBTQ+ resources both for academics and student life. For starters, Cleveland State has its own LGBTQ+ Student Services webpage, which acts as a one-stop place for both university and community resources for the LGBTQ+ community.

For your research needs, check out our Sexual Orientation & the Law Research Guide. The Michael Schwartz Library has a great database, LGBT Life, which contains all of the content available in that publication as well as full text for other significant LGBT journals, magazines, regional newspapers, and monographs.

Also of interest are Westlaw and Lexis LGBTQ+ resources:
