Que(e)ries: Diverse Genders and Sexualities Action Subcommittee
In the Spirit of our Lasallian Catholic* heritage, we are committed to respect for and holistic development of all persons. We recognize that our community includes individuals with vast and intersectional identities including diverse gender identities, gender expressions, 性取向, sexual expressions, 家庭, and relational structures and backgrounds. As such we aim to actively inform and support policies, 实践, and actions that affirm and celebrate the LGBTQIA+ communities at Saint Mary's College. We will do this via the promotion of equitable and collaborative work grounded in rich traditions of resistance, 解放, and social justice.
会员:
The subcommittee is currently co-chaired by one faculty, one 工作人员, and one student representative. The core working group consists of faculty, 工作人员, and students ideally including campus offices and groups who are invested in initiatives supporting our charge. The College Provost and the Associate Provost & Senior 多样性 Officer are considered ex-officio members of the subcommittee. The subcommittee remains an open space available to members of the Saint Mary's community who seek ways to contribute to the charge. We especially welcome members who bring intersectional perspectives to the work of the committee.

The Queer and Trans Lit Collection
The Queer and Trans Lit Collection (QTL) on the second floor of the library was created with generous funding from the Que(e)ries Committee. The QTL集合, initially envisioned and curated by former faculty member Anna I. Corwin and librarian Molly June Roquet, continues to be supported and maintained by SMC librarians. It features queer and trans books from across our collection: adult fiction and nonfiction, young adult fiction and nonfiction, graphic novels, and picture books. It is meant to be a visible and easily accessible collection highlighting and supporting our LGBTQIA+ community. Additional LGBTQIA+ literature can be found throughout the stacks.
