Following the highly successful ‘Pop-up Reading Room’ held at London College of Communication, we are pleased to announce the addition of over 100 new fanzines to the LCC Library Zine Collection. The Collection was established in 2009 to provide students with a hands-on opportunity to see a examples of zine creation and to recognize the significance of these self-published independent publications.
Leila Kassir, Information Services Librarian, comments:
“The Zine Collection is popular with and well-used by students from across the University and elsewhere who find the diversity of approaches, subjects, content and use of visual languages found within zines not only interesting but inspiring. We would like to thank the contributors for their hugely generous gifts to the Collection and for continuing to support the development of an important and invaluable resource.”
