In partnership with Inés Vañó García of the Modern Languages and Literatures Department, we have established our first collection of Zines. Zine is short for magazine or fanzine and is a self-published work of text and images usually created to share thoughts and experiences often from marginalized communities that don’t have access to mainstream publishing outlets.

Our initial collection is comprised of Spanish, English, and Bilingual zines from North America, South America, and Europe, and is currently located in the Library’s DeCiccio Reading Room.

Visit our online guide for more information about zines, how to make your own zine, or about our collection.
