Zine Library

Zine making kit with scissors and other supplies

The Barnard Zine Library is a site of  feminist, critical creation, as well as reading of zines. Zines are part of a greater DIY (do it yourself) culture that emphasizes self-reliance and resistance to consumer culture, particularly among people holding marginalized identities. Zine library staff support zine making across curricula, including hosting workshops [link tk] for Barnard, Columbia, and external middle schools, high schools, and colleges -- and girl scouts.
