Scope and contents The bulk of the documents are newspaper and magazine clippings along with promotional materials such as advertising fliers, brochures, and mailers for businesses, events, and organizations. To a lesser extent, the files also contain records from organizations, resource lists, questionnaires, and surveys. The ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives’ Subject Files are the remaining 8,100 unique files of businesses, organizations, people, and topics with an additional 38,000 cross references primarily documenting twentieth century global LGBTQIA history and culture. Processing Information Processing this collection has been funded by a generous grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. Since the founding of ONE and IGLA, volunteers have played a key role in sorting, organizing, filing, and constructing new entries. A succession of three volunteer database administrators, Jeff Hagedorn, Mike Quinn, and Misha Schutt, attempted to maintain order in the nomenclature. The titles reflect their eclectic backgrounds and that of the founder, Jim Kepner. In the processing of this collection numerous files were removed as they were out of the scope of ONE’s collection policy and others were re-titled to increase their discoverability.

Administrative history The bulk of the ONE Subject Files represent Jim Kepner’s research files along with the files he collected on businesses, organizations, people, and topics. These files reflected Kepner’s eclectic interests, primarily documenting the diversity of lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual and ally (LGBTQIA) history and culture. During the 1970s Kepner opened his collections to researchers and the files formed the core of what would become International Gay & Lesbian Archives (IGLA). Kepner recruited volunteers to sort, organize, and file documents and records. After the merger of IGLA and ONE Incorporated in 1994 volunteers continued to collect and maintain the files. As the volunteers gained a greater understanding of archival principles, an effort was made to remove and reconstitute archival collections and records. After more than 60 years of collecting and culling, the files more accurately reflect the mission of ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives to preserve and document LGBTQIA history and culture. Arrangement The files are arranged alphabetically. The nomenclature reflects the eclectic experience of the dozens of volunteers and the attempt of a succession of database administrators to maintain order. Separated materials Periodicals including newspapers, newsletters, and magazines were removed and placed in the ONE periodical collection.
