Description:
One of the earliest gay and lesbian groups in the state, NLN began in 1979 as a support network for the rural LGBT community, located in Aroostook County, with members in Maine and New Brunswick.

The Archives contains an extensive collection of organizational records, promotional materials, photo albums and artifacts.
