ZineLibraries.Info
A hub of information compiled by the Zine Librarians Info Group, which offers guidance on teaching, cataloging, and building a zine collection/program in your library. Each year at the American Library Association's (ALA) annual conference, they host a Zine Pavilion where attendees can contribute to a collaborative zine, which is published online at the end of the conference.
Many libraries include zines in their collections to preserve the voices and histories of their community.
Oakland Public Library has a zine collection in both the teen and adult sections at the Main Library, and accepts submissions. If you have some free time, we highly recommend checking it out! They also host a Teen Zine Club on the 3rd Wednesday of each month from 4-5pm.
University Libraries are also incorporating zines into their collections and curricula. Check out a wide variety of Libguides below:
UC Berkeley includes instructions on basic bookbinding like how to assemble leafs/stitch larger zines together.
NOTE: The free Zine collections linked below contain materials for ALL ages. Please screen content before distributing to students.
