[ATTW-L] LGBTQIA+ resource guide

[Dragga, Sam]

If you are looking for a genuinely uplifting sample of technical communication that includes examples of explanation, definition, annotation, and efficient information design, consider the resource guide for “Reading with Pride” published by Scholastic in support of K-12 LGBTQIA+ students and books.

This brief guide includes

  *   a letter to educators, caregivers, and advocates
  *   a series of statistics explaining why support for LGBTQIA+ young people is essential
  *   a listing of award-winning authors and titles to certify the growing reputation of LGBTQIA+ books for young people
  *   a concisely annotated register of resources in six categories
  *   a glossary of words and phrases related to LGBTQIA+ people
  *   a table of pertinent books and authors, divided by reading age and tagged with identities covered to allow quick access

The guide is available at https://www.scholastic.com/content/dam/scholastic/educators/discussion-guides/read-with-pride-disc-guide.pdf.

In perilous times and especially in hostile locations, this is technical communication that could be a lifesaver.
