printers, although a few were made using black and white photocopiers or found
materials.

Historical Note
Zines are non-commercial, small circulation "Do It Yourself" (DIY)
magazines. The term “Zines” comes from “fanzines”
or fan magazines. Precursors to the modern zine include Thomas Paine’s
Common Sense and other leaflets published and distributed to the masses in the
eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The modern zine evolved from the science
fiction fanzines of the 1930s. In the early 1980s the emergence of the personal
computer and photocopiers led to a “zine revolution”, and
today’s underground publishing movement was born. Today’s zines
cover a myriad of topics and reflect their creator’s interests; they can
be about anything from women’s rights or politics to libraries. Zines
can be produced by anyone with access to a photocopier from homeless teenagers
to librarians.
Collection Scope and Content
The zines in this collection were created by UCF students, a majority
from Professor Kristin Congdon's Theory and Criticism in the Visual Arts and
Aesthetics classes. They cover a range of topics and were produced primarily
with inkjet printers, although a few were made using black and white
photocopiers or found materials. This is a growing collection, and unsolicited
contributions to the collections will be considered for acquisition. The Zines
Collection compliments the Libraries’s Book Arts, Typography and Van
Sickle Leftist Pamphlet collections.
