"If bibliographic records do not include the terms that patrons search for, the materials they need will be hidden and inaccessible when they are needed the most. However, Library of Congress (LC) has not sufficiently prepared for this inevitable need by updating the archaic Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) terms like 'Sexual minorities' and 'Gays' or adding in appropriate scope notes, so catalogers know how to apply terms to records. It is time for catalogers to devise their own solution while they continue to lobby the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) to appropriately update LCSH." (Fischer, 2023, p 4)

"By not updating LCSH terms to include vocabulary used contemporaneously, the LGBTQIA community is being marginalized. Whether one is or is not a member of the LGBTQIA community, the materials necessary for research on relevant topics are less accessible or even hidden because of the lack of appropriate subject headings." (p. 6)

I really liked the format and information in this book, and I wasn't surprised that I had already read a fair number of titles mentioned inside. I'm looking forward to ticking more off of this list.
