Hello! I'm Zannelle, a soon-to-be graduate of the University of British Columbia Dual MLIS/MAS Program, currently working with the international LGBTQ+ linked data vocabulary, the Homosaurus.
We are currently asking Homosaurus users to respond to a short form about their use of the vocabulary. It's very helpful for us to hear about how and where the Homosaurus is being utilized, let it be at your institution or with other projects. By letting us know about your use of the Homosaurus, you help the community grow and support our grant application efforts.
If you are interested in sharing about your use of the Homosaurus, please fill out the Google form here.<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf4I0d_4_c4uDOXakC_RvOo1KGaWpvRNWUVx-jabkPEITbKxA/viewform?usp=dialog>

Responses to this form are private (insofar as anything hosted on Google is), and the aggregate data will be stored in Proton Drive for increased privacy and security. Once transferred to Proton Drive, the information in Google will be deleted. In Proton, the list will be only accessible to members of the Homosaurus Organizing Board and we will not be shared or republished without permission—the aggregated data will be used for internal statistics and illustrating our importance (i.e. widespread use) to grant funders.
If you want to connect with others in the community, we have a google groups listserv<https://groups.google.com/g/homoitcommunity> and if you want to show your Homosaurus pride, you can check out our fabulous dino-rainbow swag at our online store<https://homosaurus.threadless.com/>!
Questions or comments? Please contact us<https://homosaurus.org/contact> or feel free to reach out to me directly.
Thanks!
