We think of the organization of knowledge as an objective and almost scientific matter, but this book 鈥� with an eye toward how libraries and their systems of cataloging represent gender and sexuality 鈥� reveals that it's anything but that. How can we truly capture human diversity? Cruising the Library doesn't hold all the answers, but it starts asking some provocative questions.
