We have a zine collection!
Pronounced like magazine—without the mag—zines are self-published, independently made, usually photocopied, and have a small print run. Zines rose to prominence in the 70s, but one could argue that they have been around since the invention of Johannes Gutenberg’s printing press in 1439.
Zine content can be personal, political, niche, artistic, or visual—there are no rules! We have zines for all ages by local and international zinesters. You can browse the collection at any of our 13 zine library locations, or search our catalog to place a hold and have your zines delivered to your nearest branch.
The Centennial Fold: Celebrating a Century of the Light of Learning
Celebrate the Centennial of the Central Library by creating your own wishes for the future with this special edition zine template! The Nova Community Arts designed this template in partnership with the Literature and Fiction Department and the Venice Branch Library.
To print, use standard 8.5 x 11" sheet of paper, and set settings to print at full scale, not shrunk to fit, so it prints and folds correctly.
