What are Zines?

A zine, short for fanzine or magazine, is a self-published work of original or appropriated texts or images. Zines are created to enable people, often from marginalized communities and without access to mainstream publishing systems, to share their stories. Zines empower individuals and communities to help shape the public narrative and foster self-representation to challenge biases, make visible silenced voices/stories/narratives, and promote equity and inclusion.

Learn more about zines at Geisel Library.

Program funded by the Diversity & Inclusion Innovation Fund. 

Sponsored by Geisel Library and Goffstown Public Library
