Chris Gonzalez Library and Archives
Located in Indianapolis, Indiana, The Chris Gonzalez Library and Archives is a circulating LGBT libraries in the Midwest. Housed inside the office building of Indy Pride, Inc., the collection currently has over 8,000 titles, a vast archive of local and national LGBT publications, including ''The Mirror Magazine'', ''The Works Magazine'' and the ''Heartland Newspaper'' collections. The library is also the proud recipient of the popular Bob and Margaret Green drag scene video collection.
Other notable items in the archive is a collection of more than 200 T-shirts from legions of GBLT festivals and parades across the United States, valuable artwork by local artists, LGBT paraphernalia, mementos, and rare GLBT collectibles.
==Creation==
The brainchild of Michael Bohr, a lifelong resident of Indianapolis and graduate of Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School, 1966 and Xavier University, 1970, started the archive in 1993 with the donation of his personal collection, which contained 1,600 books and other memorabilia of gay life in Indianapolis. During the 1980s and 1990s, Acquired Immune Dificiency Syndrome (AIDS) took the lives of many friends of Bohr's, and, thus, served as a catalyst in the creation of the library. Additionally, Bohr's awareness of other GLBT libraries, particularly the Gerber/Hart Library in Chicago served as inspiration in establishing a library in his hometown of Indianapolis.
