Prof. Marie Radford presented juried paper with PhD student titled, “The Role of Social Location and Back, Civil, and Forbidden Spaces in the Information Practices of LGBTQ Individuals,” at the Association for Library and Information Science Education (ALISE) 2016 conference, Jan. 5-8 in Boston. Drawing from results of 15 in-depth interviews with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and/or questioning (LGBTQ) individuals, this exploratory study examines how information practices differ based on social location (i.e., the social construction of place).
