Abstract
The Queer Omaha Archives (QOA) is an ongoing effort by the University of Nebraska at Omaha Libraries' Archives and Special Collections to collect and preserve Omaha's LGBTQIA+ history. This is still a fairly new initiative at the UNO Libraries, having been launched in June 2016. This blog post is adapted and expanded from a presentation entitled "Show Us Your Omaha: Combatting LGBTQ+ Archival Silences" (https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/crisslibfacproc/81/), originally given at the June 2017 Nebraska Library Association College & University Section spring meeting. The QOA was only a year old at that point, and now that another year (plus change) has passed, the collection has continued to grow, and we've learned some new lessons.
