As a social sciences librarian, I am always on the lookout for works that provide strong coverage of LGBTQIA topics. Charlie McNabb fills a significant publication gap with a thoroughly researched volume on nonbinary gender identities. It will serve researchers and librarians alike with its definitions, historical and cultural information, and detailed bibliographies for further research. This is an essential resource for anyone developing library collections for gender studies or studying gender.--Miriam Rigby, social sciences librarian, University of Oregon Libraries Nonbinary Gender Identities emerges at a critical moment when nonbinary youth are exploding the prejudice that bodies and genders can only be one of two. Charlie McNabb explains what it means to be nonbinary or genderqueer with sensitivity, precision, and kindness. This is a book for any reader who wants to better understand what it means to be nonbinary, or even what it means to be human.--Riki Wilchins, Executive Director, TrueChild McNabb, a folklorist, archivist, librarian, and queer activist, offers a strong introduction to definitions, histories, and cultures of nonbinary individuals. In addition, McNabb provides scholars, archivists, librarians, and teachers with a treasure-trove of resources to learn about, and research, the history and contemporary experiences of nonbinary people. . . . Overall, McNabb provides a fine introduction to the history and culture of nonbinary gender identities. . . . [Part 2] will offer readers something not available elsewhere: an abundance of resources for learning about, engaging with, and researching the history and contemporary experiences of nonbinary individuals and groups.-- "Journal of Contemporary Archival Studies" Since nonbinary genders are not well understood by the general public, the first book by folklorist, librarian, and activist McNabb is not only timely but informative and helpful.... The essays, ranging from the cultural and political history of nonbinary-gender identities in the U.S. to their history worldwide and including profiles of notable nonbinary people, are well written: clear, readable, and educational in the best sense, serving to explicate and to center the story of nonbinary genders in context.... A solid, educational, useful, and engrossing resource on nonbinary genders, this work deserves a home in most college, university, and large public libraries.-- "Booklist" This book is a compilation of resources for nonbinary gender identities: individuals who are not exclusively male or female. It is an umbrella term, as the author states in the preface: other terms include genderfluid, bigender, and genderqueer. These individuals have existed in society for centuries, but have often been marginalized and even persecuted. This book is meant to be a pathfinder book for nonbinary people as well as a guide for those who wish to educate themselves on this topic, and is a point-in-time publication given the resources cited. It is divided into two parts: Part 1, (Hir)stories, has five chapters on issues such as definition and introduction, visibility in the United States, culturally specific genders, nonbinary genders in popular culture, and notable nonbinary people. Part 2, Resources, has eight chapters which focus on places to find information such as archives and special collections, nonfiction books, journals, theses and dissertations, fiction books, organizations and associations, online resources, and multimedia. Four appendixes provide a glossary, pronoun usage, a sexuality and gender primer, and Library of Congress subject headings, along with a bibliography and index. Given that there are very few print resources in this area, I highly recommend this book for high school and academic libraries.-- "American Reference Books Annual"
