Galerstein Gender Center


Help us fill our bookshelves!

 The GGC offers a Resource Collection that contains a growing number of current books on various gender and LGBT+ topics. Any UTD community member can check out any of our materials with a valid Comet Card.

With your generous donations last year, we were able to purchase over 120 books for our campus community to enjoy. Our library is a welcoming space of learning, reflection, research, education and resources.

The Galerstein Gender Center, under the Office of Diversity and Community Engagement, is a campus resource that fosters an affirming and inclusive environment by advocating for LGBT+ and gender equity through diversity initiatives of education, advocacy, programs and services.
