COMMUNITy events<br />
LGBT History Month 2013<br />
LGBT History Month is a glittering celebration of diversity and equality that is<br />
held in February each year.<br />
Last year, <strong>Islington</strong> made the national media with our ground-breaking<br />
exhibition of <strong>Islington</strong> library book covers defaced by gay writer Joe Orton. This<br />
was just one of 38 events during the month and was our biggest yet!<br />
We'd like to make it even bigger this year but we need your help!<br />
Please let us know what you will be doing to mark LGBT History Month<br />
– email equalities@islington.gov.uk or visit, www.islington.gov.uk/<br />
