Following up last weeks focus on one of our partner projects, this week I would like to point you towards the Transgender Archives at the Victoria University. Run by Founder and Academic Director Dr. Aaron Devor and University Archivist Lara Wilson, the Transgender Archives have been actively collecting documents, rare publications and memorabilia associated with transgender activism since 2007. The collections include significant donations from the personal papers of Reed Erikson, the University of Ulster TGA collection (click here for a more detailed history of the Ulster TGA), and the records at the Zenith Foundation.
