Valentine’s Day is coming and all forms of love are celebrated everywhere.The “shocking”, “tormented”, “strange”, “wild”, “sinful”kind of love screams from vivid covers of the early lesbian and gay pulp fiction publications now on display at the Elihu Burritt Library at CCSU. Some 150 exquisite examples of this interesting genre from the university’s GLBTQ Archival Collections will be on display through March 15th 2012.
The exhibit is located on the second floor of the library and can be viewed during the library opening hours.
For more information please contact Special Collections and Archives at 860 832-2086 and 860 832-2085
February is the month of romance, and to show our affection for the CCSU community, we are pleased to offer trial access to some fabulous online collections through the beginning of March! Check out the Vogue Archive, which contains the full contents of 
Vogue magazine (US edition) with full color page images from the first issue in 1892 to the present. This month we’re also featuring trial access to two amazing collections from Alexander Street Press, VAST: Academic Video Online and Music Online. Finally, for lovers of our feathered friends, we’re delighted to offer trial access to Birds of North America Online, which provides comprehensive life histories for each of the 716+ species of birds breeding in the USA (including Hawaii) and Canada.
