Zines and Alternative Publishing: Local Zine Collections

We have a growing collection of zines at the SMFA Library, many created through our Zine Grant program.  

About the collection:

• To browse our zines, stop by the front desk or make an appointment with Darin Murphy (dmurphy@smfa.edu, 617-369-3651) 
• Zines must be viewed inside the Library
• Our zine holdings cannot be searched in the FLO catalog, but we do have several books about zines including histories, how-to guides, and anthologies of landmark publications. See Books and Articles for more information.
• We accept donations! If interested, get in touch. 

Please feel free to get in touch with a librarian at any stage of your research process. Stop by the library (located on the third floor of the B side of the Fenway building), or get in touch directly with:
