Abstract: Intended for any audience, this is a beginner’s guide to inclusively interacting with transgender patrons in a library setting. We hope you will find information about creating a welcoming environment and providing resources to transgender persons. The session was meant to be an informational session regardless of institutional background or religious identity. The presenters relayed a selection of key terms and points of awareness relevant to the transgender community. We did not intend this to be a discussion on the validity or authenticity of identities, but rather a guide to interactions that allow library professionals to reduce library anxiety for a specific population.
