The attendance was approximately 3000 (including day members). More notable than the total attendance was the national distribution--this was as close to a true Worldcon as we've gotten. As far as I could tell, every European country the size of Luxembourg or larger was represented except for Greece, Turkey, Albania, and Portugal. This includes all the "Eastern Bloc" countries, who had dozens of representatives--a busload arrived from Czechoslovakia, for example. There were also members from Israel and Malaysia.

  • Libraries and Archives by Ruth M
    Libraries and Archives by Ruth M. Pettis A group of materials held Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. at the archives of the Entry Copyright © 2009 glbtq, Inc. GLBT Historical Society Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com of Northern California in 2010. For many queer and questioning people in the process of coming out, the public library has often been the first source for information. Likewise, university holdings and glbtq archives have been crucial repositories for the restoration and reconstruction of hidden queer history. Both kinds of institutions remain vital sources for accurate information and for facilitating research into the history and culture of sexual minorities. Libraries Pre-Stonewall era coming out stories often describe furtive searches through indexes and card catalogs under the heading "homosexuality" only to find one's intuitive sense of self distorted through vocabularies of perversion and criminality. Despite this, many found comfort in the knowledge that they were not alone. Those fortunate enough to discover literary reflections of their experience through writers such as William Shakespeare or Sappho or James Baldwin or Radclyffe Hall or who could sift through problematic terminology toward an objective viewpoint could begin the difficult process of identity formation. Early on, gay activists recognized the importance of reliable information access. Librarians were the first American profession to establish a gay interest group. In 1970 a group within the American Library Association founded the Task Force on Gay Liberation. Eventually, it became the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgendered Round Table (GLBTRT), chaired by lesbian activist Barbara Gittings from 1971 to 1986. GLBTRT worked to expand the Library of Congress's subject headings to non-judgmental terms more reflective of glbtq experience.

  • States of Fandom: Community, Constituency, Public Sphere
    STATES OF FANDOM: COMMUNITY, CONSTITUENCY, PUBLIC SPHERE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Hannah Ruth Mueller January 2017 © 2017 Hannah Ruth Mueller STATES OF FANDOM: COMMUNITY, CONSTITUENCY, PUBLIC SPHERE Hannah Mueller, Ph.D. Cornell University 2017 Approaching grassroots fan communities as political constituencies, this dissertation traces the historical development of self-organized fan groups from the 1930s to the present, focusing specifically on conceptions of community, the negotiation of public discourse, processes of decision-making, and fannish engagement with social and political issues. While fan studies scholarship previously has emphasized the relationship between text and fan, this study thus steers attention towards the relationships between fans themselves and articulates the interrelations between fan activism, transformative fan practices, and the discursive conditions within fandom. On the basis of archival and online-ethnographic research, the dissertation investigates crucial controversies in the Western literary science-fiction and fantasy community from the 1930s to the 1980s as well as in contemporary online transformative fandom to show how historical context, the demographic makeup of the fandom, fans’ use of communication technologies, and their self- conception as community influence the negotiation and resolution of internal conflicts. Drawing on different theories of community formation and the public sphere, the first chapter of the study proposes that pre-internet literary science-fiction fandom was dominated by a communitarian ideal that regulated in-/exclusion by prioritizing the community over its individual members. In contrast, transformative online fandom promotes the ideal of a non-hierarchical, inclusionary, unregulated alternative public sphere, in which the ethical principles of consensus-building have to be constantly re-negotiated.
