Heard-Padgett Collection

Martin Padgett and Ken Heard

Both Martin Padgett and Ken Heard are avid readers. When they moved to Toronto they kept about 90 shelf meters of books, and donated most of their Gay and Lesbian books and periodicals to the Pride Library at the University of Western Ontario, where it is now known as the Heard-Padgett collection.
