Lexington History

"As an archive, our primary goal is to collect the story of Kentucky’s LGBTQ community through documents, artifacts, and oral histories. We use this material to create our own programming, including exhibits, lectures, and walking tours. Collections within the archive are also available to other institutions and researchers." Some materials are available online in the Digital Transgender Archive.

"The purpose of the Digital Transgender Archive (DTA) is to increase the accessibility of transgender history by providing an online hub for digitized historical materials, born-digital materials, and information on archival holdings throughout the world. Based in Boston, Massachusetts at Northeastern University, the DTA is an international collaboration among more than sixty colleges, universities, nonprofit organizations, public libraries, and private collections. By digitally localizing a wide range of trans-related materials, the DTA expands access to trans history for academics and independent researchers alike in order to foster education and dialog concerning trans history." Some materials from Lexington based Faulkner Morgan Archive are included in the DTA.
