The Mariposa Education and Research Foundation was founded to educate the public and
its leaders about human sexuality and to bridge the gap between the accurate information
known to researchers and the sexual beliefs held by most other Americans. For its
libraries, it collected periodicals and other publications, personal files, legal
documents, notes, manuscripts, clippings, and films pertaining to all aspects of human
sexuality, and to the gay and lesbian experience in particular.
Mariposa's organizational records, including mailings and minutes of meetings. Also
educational materials Mariposa created for the public, including posters and brochures,
plus some of the ephemera (for example magazines and photographs) and audio-visual
materials it collected. Themes include birth control, gay and lesbian rights and legal
issues, S/M lifestyle, and other aspects of human sexuality.
Collecting program: Human Sexuality.
Distinct sub-collections are cataloged separately. For a list of these component
