[Identification of item]. Desi del Valle collection of International Lesbian and Gay Association records. Collection Number:
1994-20. GLBT Historical Society
Scope and Content of Collection
The bulk of the collection concerns the activities of the International Lesbian and Gay Association (ILGA), a worldwide federation
of national and local groups dedicated to achieving lesbian and gay rights around the globe. Founded in 1978, ILGA focuses
public and government attention on lesbian and gay rights by supporting programs and protest actions, asserting diplomatic
pressure, providing resource information, and working with the international media. The collection contains selected ILGA
materials collected by Del Valle, including ILGA campaigns, activities, resources, conference materials, and affiliate group
information. Also included are [Gay and Lesbian] Center Liaison Committee (New York) meeting minutes from January to December
1991, when Del Valle was presumably secretary. A smaller part of the collection contains Lambda Legal Defense and Education
Fund news releases from September 1990 to July 1993; during at least part of this time, Del Valle served as Assistant to the
Executive Director of Lambda. A still smaller portion of the collection contains photographs from three east coast events.
Researchers can also consult the ILGA Bulletin, which is available in the Periodical Collection.
