“Zine Library Day! Search for a zine library in your area and make plans to go someday or contact them about how to include your zine in their collection.”

I’m really curious about local zine scenes anywhere in the world, what they are like, which kind of zines are written, who is writing them, how are those zines distributed, what is the response, are there zine fests / workshops / shops / libraries / distros or other projects, are they linked to subcultures / political movements / art scenes / certain spaces, a little bit of local zine herstory/history…
Please send me your local* zine scene reports and I will publish them on this blog! I’m especially interested in a focus on feminist / poc / queer / trans / grrrl / per – zines but anything is welcome!
Mail me at flapper_grrrl@yahoo.co.uk
*You can decide on how you define “local”. It can be a city/town, country, or other geographical region.
