The GAGV Library and Archives project re-invented itself back in 2004 and has been evolving ever since.

For the past five years, the Library and Archives has been located on the fifth floor in the GAGV administrative offices at the Auditorium Center, 875 East Main St. in downtown Rochester and was open on Wednesday evenings. It is now located in a room next to the GAGV Youth Center on the first floor. It houses thousands of books, CDs, DVDs, magazines, newspapers, periodicals and archival materials (including back issues of The Empty Closet) that pertain to the local LGBT community.
