Gay & Lesbian Abstracts (GLA), compiled by NISC, is the premier index 
to gay and lesbian literature. With nearly 25,000 records - growing 
monthly - GLA is an essential reference tool for all university and 
public libraries, academic curricula, as well as Gay, Lesbian, Bisex-
ual and Transgendered (GLBT) organizations, community centres and 
student groups. Of paramount importance is the coverage of history, 
culture, social issues, interests, and concerns of the GLBT commu-
nity.

** Nearly 600 sources regularly covered! Over 1,800 periodical 
sources represented in the database with ISSN's included. Search 
across journal articles, magazines, newspapers, newsletters, bulle-
tins, books, proceedings, reports, dissertations, studies, websites 
and multi-media publications.

** Gay & Lesbian Abstracts offers a balanced, objective and thorough 
review of popular and scholarly print, electronic and internet publi-
cations as well as the GLBT press.

** GLA is an excellent resource guide to the ongoing intellectual and 
scholarly discussions of subjects that reflect the diversity of the 
GLBT community.

** GLA indexes publications addressing the social, legal, economic, 
political, cultural, historical, literary, and health concerns of the 
GLBT community.

** GLA references a variety of materials including non-fiction, re-
views and essays - excluding only fiction and erotica.
