The Irish Queer Archives and Reference Library contains the most comprehensive collection of material in Ireland relating to homosexuality and general queer studies.
There are over a quarter million press cuttings from 1971 onwards, a library of over 250 international titles (the earliest date from 1951), a complete set of every every lesbian/gay title published since 1974 on the island of Ireland, and a fascinating collection of audiovisual material, photographs and slides, flyers, posters, badges and other ephemera.
The Irish Queer Archive – a vast collection of material which provides interesting and valuable insights into the social history of lesbians and gay men in an Irish and international context over a thirty-year period – has being presented to the National Library following a decision to donate it by the National Lesbian and Gay Federation.
