Queering Classification

This video from the University Library at California State University, Dominguez Hills (CSUDH) does an excellent job explaining how classification systems in our catalogs, databases, and search engines can be discriminatory and favor the dominant narrative. At Trinity University's Coates Library, we use the Library of Congress call number system. This video will help you understand how things are categorized, and it is a reminder of how many things still need to change.
