Gay library wants to raise local profile : Tucked into a small, windowless building in a Downtown alley is surely Indianapolis' least-known cultural attraction.

It's the equivalent of the local gay community's attic, a quirky, pint-sized Smithsonian containing four decades of odds and ends: long-defunct gay magazines, videotapes of long-ago drag shows, photo albums and books with gay themes -- gay westerns, gay science fiction, gay history, gay medical books, biographies of Roy Cohn, Rock Hudson, Noel Coward.
