The editors have officially agreed to integrate our database into their review process. This result belongs entirely to the individuals who stepped up and added their names to the list. I am stunned by the outcome and grateful that we can finally move forward with this momentum.
The 2002 Committee on the Status of Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals and Transgendered Persons report suggested that the Status Committee, the Sexualities Section, and the SLGBT Caucus provide journal editors with a list of potential reviewers and their areas of LGBT scholarship specialization. Please consider entering your data in our database below. We will deliver the database to the current editors of Contemporary Sociology as well as other editors. Thank you.
The emails I am receiving from all of you remind me why this work is so vital. It is humbling to see such a dedicated community coming together to ensure our scholarship gets the attention it truly deserves.

I am honestly overwhelmed by the response to this list because I truly expected only a handful of people to engage with it. You all have built something important that will genuinely help editors find the expertise they need. This momentum belongs entirely to those who took the time to contribute their experience.

This is way overdue. It is tough finding people who actually understand the nuances in this field. Great project.

About time. Too many editors just rely on the same 5 people they already know. this opens doors.
