Hi there- I want to qualify this with, I am not suggesting this article be deleted or anything of that sort, but in light of the fact that the oldest LGBTQI archive in the United States is the ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives, established in 1952 and holding 2 million items, saying this is one of the longest continually operating archives with its 1974 establishment and move to several different locations seems a bit questionable. On the Digital Transgender Archive it states "SMA is national in scope and is one of the oldest and largest LGBTQI archives in the United States", but they seem to be a partner institution. 12,000 volumes and a great mission but considering that ONE National has 2 million, can that statement really be true? Can we get a better source than the dissertation stating as much that's not directly-affiliated with this nonprofit? Even if those facts don't prove true, perhaps there's another superlative this organization has, such as the oldest continuously operated independent archive, or one focusing specifically on trans issues?
