Use Your Words Zine Library

Fridays from 4-7 at Libertalia will be a time for people to come and find out about volunteering at the library, as well as working on stuff for it. Stop by!

hey! If anyone local is interested in volunteering to help us get the collection up and cataloged, get in touch. You can email useyourwordszines @ gmail . com! We'll try and arrange a way to get you involved! We should be really buckling down on it starting in a few weeks

This is a page mostly to keep track of the progress and going ons of the Library as well as local zine community information, zine culture things, etc. There are most likely more effective and appropriate places to advertise your publications. For some reason a post was made to Use Your Words Zine Library for a publication advertisement, and facebook somehow managed to get that in Use Your Words Zine Library's page photo album. While normally that post would not have been deleted right away, since it added a photo to the library's album, it was deleted. Please try to keep this in mind while posting things to this page.

There will be a zine workshop, called "Copy and Paste your Way to the Revolution" happening this Sunday at Libertalia Autonomous Space at 3:45pm.

Here is the description: "This workshop is for all levels of interest in zines, whether you make them already or are contemplating starting. We will talk about the definition of a zine, the history of zines in relation to social change/revolution, discuss how zine making is a radical act, and share zine resources and tips for making and sharing zines. Bring your thoughts and ideas about zines and be ready to discuss and learn more about them."

https://www.facebook.com/24HZT a reminder that this occurs during this month (July)

24 Hour Zine Thing 24 hours. 24 pages. 1 month. 1 zine. Create a 24-page zine from conception to final product within 24 consecutive hours during the month of July.
