The Riot Grrrl Collection at Fales Library
The Riot Grrrl Collection is an attempt to document the evolution of the Riot Grrrl movement, particularly in the years between 1989 and 1996. Because Riot Grrrl was (and is) both a political and a cultural movement, its output was diverse, including writing, music, performance, film, activism, photography, video, and original art, as well as documentation of activism and performance. This research collection will provide primary resources for scholars who are interested in feminism, punk activism, queer theory, gender theory, DIY culture, and music history.
Excellent example of an innovative special collection that focuses on an interesting albeit brief moment in history. The finding aids are awesome!
This is a reminder that libraries are not just about books.
