Gay Alliance of Brooklyn.

The International Gay Information Center, Inc. (IGIC) was founded in New York City in 1982 for the purpose of collecting and preserving historical records and papers which document the movement for gay rights in America. Since its founding the IGIC has collected the records of organizations and the papers of individuals who have been active in the gay rights movement.It has also collected and preserved an extensive file of gay periodicals and imprints; audio-visual materials; and a large mass of printed and near-printed ephemera which document the social and political activities and events of local gay organizations and groups in various cities throughout America. Since its founding John Hammond has served as president, and Bruce Eves as vice-president and treasurer.

The Gay Alliance of Brooklyn was founded in 1971 by members of the Gay Activists Alliance in order to establish in their own borough an organization of gays and lesbians dedicated to the attainment of civil rights for gays. It sponsored films, forums, and dances and published (irregularly) a monthly newsletter. At its peak it claimed a membership of over 300. The organization appears to have been dissolved in early 1973.
