That sort of misinformation is the reason the dissemination of accurate information is an ongoing necessity of life. This article is the first in a series about finding good information. I welcome submissions about ways in which to find good information in other countries. The best sources, in my experience, are gay, lesbian and bisexual community centers, bookstores and libraries. Community centers usually have people to talk with, small libraries, and brochures and flyers about all manner of other resources.
Libraries are also good places to look.
Librarians are, by and large, opposed to censorship and supportive of keeping a wide variety of views and information available to the public. In addition, there is a substantial number of openly gay, lesbian and bisexual librarians. Libraries are, however, subject to budget constraints that limit how much new material can be acquired on any topic. Bookstore owners and staff, particularly in small alternative or larger privately owned stores, are also great supporters of supplying the public with as much diverse and varied material as possible. In addition, bookstores often function as community centers, even in cities where other centers exist, and offer information oncoming events, referrals to all sorts of services and professionals, and information on where to find other like-minded people.
