Trans Inclusion Through Name Change Policies In Institutional Repositories, Stephen G. Krueger

Dartmouth Library Staff Publications

As awareness and acceptance of trans and gender diverse people grows, scholarly publishing has seen a movement to support trans authors through inclusive name change policies. This work mainly happens through trans scholars approaching publishers and requesting these changes. Sometimes this results in a new policy that supports the authors and protects them from being outed to co-authors and readers; other times, the policies are less than ideal or do not change at all. While most of the focus is on publishers and organizations, institutional repositories can and should take similar steps to respect and protect their trans authors. This …

Thriving Through Human Centered Approaches To Change, Annie Bélanger, Megan Musolff
