This document summarizes the civil rights movement in the United States from the 1960s to early 1970s. It outlines prominent civil rights organizations like the NAACP, SCLC, CORE, and SNCC and how their tactics evolved from legal action to more militant approaches. As the movement polarized, groups like the Black Panthers embraced a radical message of "total liberation or total destruction." This was accompanied by urban uprisings in cities like Watts, Newark, and Detroit in response to police brutality. The riots led to a white backlash, calls for law and order, and the election of Richard Nixon, who adopted a policy of "benign neglect" toward civil rights issues.

This work is dedicated to those who lost their way because they had nowhere to turn, nowhere to go, and to the librarians and the teachers who give them hope.
The core conviction in this presentation is that librarians are catalysts for social change and personal transformation. But first come professional due diligence and careful study to learn about the LGBTQ* communities, their diverse histories, local and global, and their wide-ranging library information needs. The context is then established for developing and enhancing strategies, policies, procedures, and action plans that will support local LGBTQ* communities.
I hope this presentation affords a pathway to change and support. The focus is principally on Alberta and Canada because this context is what I know best.
But there are many commonalities across countries and cultures in what LGBTQ* communities experience and in how librarians and libraries can position themselves as service providers, supporters, and advocates to create an ethno-cultural climate of respect and resilience in society, grounded in an ethos of human rights and social justice.
This version has been greatly expanded from my previous 77 slides to incorporate recent research and professional events.
It is divided into two separate SlideShare files:
1. Library Service and Collection Policies and Strategies for Supporting LGBTQ* Communities
2. Being a More Visible Support for LGBTQ* Communities – What Some Canadian Libraries are Doing to Promote LGBTQ* Services, Inclusivity, and Community Engagement
Part 1 addresses the status of LGBTQ* rights around the world; the LGBTQ* rainbow umbrella; library service collection policies and strategies for supporting LGBTQ* communities; a policy framework; access challenges in meeting LGBTQ* library information needs; and professional resources to support LGBTQ* communities and library users.
The analysis of LGBTQ* access challenges is at the heart of issues that are central to effective library services for LGBTQ* populations: library staff values and service attitudes; materials access; subject access; Internet access and filtering; reference and research services; and library information needs research.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
