Proctor, J. (2020). Representation in the Collection: Assessing Coverage of LGBTQ Content in an Academic Library Collection. Collection Management, 1-12.
 
Julia Proctor, examines the Penn State University library (PSUL) system to find out about the holdings of material related to LGBTQ+ people. Proctor points out that collections have been evolving for decades and some for centuries.   She discovered that for the PSUL system 37% of the material in the collection was Lesbian related, and that it had 5,606 holdings with the term Gay.  The article addresses the youthfulness of the area of LGBTQ+ academic scholarship coming unto its own in the 1990s.   In the end Proctor states, “assessing the collection for content relating to under-represented groups should not be a one-time effort. Building and shaping library collections requires ongoing, evolving assessments.
