Zines and Small-Press Publishing

An Introductory guide which explains what small-press publishing and Zines are, where you can access Zine collections in Dundee and around Scotland, and how to create your own zines and small press publications

 

If you'd like to get a better idea of the different kinds of zines out there (and maybe you'd like some of  to make your own), the best way is to read some! There are lots of places to read zines for free around Scotland, including the University of Dundee's own collection. Some of these libraries house archival collections preserving zines from historical movements, others hold contemporary collections and are regularly updated with submissions from their community (and further afield.)  Zine libraries sometimes hold zine-making events and open days so keep an eye out if you'd like some help with getting started.
