How can I access the zine collection?
The collection is easily accessible to anyone with a Barnard or Columbia ID or to people from schools to whom we grant site privileges (e.g. NYU, SHARES institutions). If you are not a member of one of these communities, just contact the Zine Librarian to make an appointment. It’s NO BIG DEAL. We just have to let the desk attendant know to expect you. If you prefer phone to email, call 212.854.4615. Once you get here, remember that there are two sets of zines: stacks and archives. There are twice as many zines in the archives and hundreds more that haven’t been processed yet and are in the Zine Librarian’s office or in Technical Services. If there is something in particular that you are looking for and can’t find it, please ask for help at the reference desk!
