Roundtable: The Safe Repository: Sex, Gender and Reproduction at the Kinsey Institute
The Kinsey Institute Library & Special Collections was founded in 1947 to protect sexological research and cultural materials, including works rescued from Nazi destruction. It now forms the largest public collection related to human sexuality, gender and reproduction in the world, and holds materials that are foundational to research in women’s, gender and queer histories. This roundtable brings together the director, librarian and curator of the Kinsey Institute together with historians to explore what it means, and has meant, to serve as a “safe repository” in changing times.
