I have the pleasure of working with IHLIA - the International LGBTI library, archive and information center (www.ihlia.nl) to organise an international conference in August 2012. It is right at the time of the Amsterdam Canal Pride. We are bringing together LGBTI movements that are interested in collecting the cultural heritage of LGBTI people in their country, and public libraries, archives, museums. We have a vision: by 2020, every National Archive and National Library in Europe and every major city library in North America has a dedicated LGBTI collection, visible and accessible to the public. These spaces are a sanctuary for young people, a place where they discover their proud history, a place where they discover they too can dare to live their dreams.
