Queer Books for Teens Controlled Vocabulary

"This website aims to create a comprehensive bibliography of Young Adult fiction with significant LGBTQ content published between 2000 and 2017 by major and minor presses in the United States, with a few exceptions. (...)

The website team created a controlled vocabulary to allow for searching among books. These facets were created with a combination of theoretical backing and practical interests. The facets are designed to allow users – whether teens, librarians, educators, or anyone interested – to find books that match a set of identities they want to read about, genres to explore, and a tool to warn for common trigger warnings and endings. The team welcomes feedback about our controlled vocabulary.
