VT Women's Gender, and Sexuality Studies and the University Library

Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (WGSS) a part of the College of Liberal Arts and Human Sciences , is an interdisciplinary field that "presents new ways of thinking about how race, gender, class, and sexuality shape our society and our experiences in it."

Per their webpage, "classes analyze debates about gender and sexuality, ... examining structural and interpersonal dimensions of race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality and disability over a range of topics including health, religion, media, global politics, and science."

This guide provides a collection of recommended resources for WGSS research such as databases, journals, books, articles, and so on. The recommendations are not comprehensive, but these resources are very likely to contain materials useful for your projects.
