Anyone in Ireland making zines atm? Made one in the past and still have a copy? We'd love to buy them off you! DM or @ and we'll arrange 😊

A copy of the first info-sheet bulletin produced by @56aInfoshop crew in 1991. 56a is a self-managed and self-organised radical social space, bookshop and archive, still going strong 32 years later.

Sorting out a bunch of stuff we got from @feministlibrary. Loads of amazing 70s & 80s publications. Big thanks

[56a Infoshop @56aInfoshop]

Remembering that time an academic wrote us up:

‘the absence of any stable system of classification or cataloguing, a haphazard acquisitions policy and general ramshackle structure disqualifies Infoshop from being regarded as a functional archive at all’

We cancelled! Lolz

And now I get to tell you. It is several car loads of vintage science fiction fanzines.

"Zinesters might not want the record of their work existing in an official institution. There are zine archives and library collections, but there is also a strong sense among librarians and archivists that zinesters need to consent to a zine being collected." #ZineLibraries

Some more additions to the archive! 🥰✨
If you're working on a new zine or looking for a home for your old ones, do get in touch! We're always on the hunt for new additions to the collection and have been slowly cataloguing them throughout the pandemic ✌️
