Where do I find zines / underground press publications?
Zines and other underground material are generally hard to find or just plain unavailable in stores. Usually, the most reliable way to get a copy is to ask the publisher to mail it to you, and the most reliable way to find out who to ask is to read Zine World and/or some of the other publications that review the underground press. You can also find out about recently released zines through several of the websites we have listed on our resources page.Zines can sometimes be found at funkier bookstores (especially in larger cities) or can be purchased from zine distributors, aka distros. Keep in mind, however, that authors, who are usually losing money anyway, get a much smaller cut when you buy from a store or distro. You can also find zines at public & academic libraries, zine libraries, or infoshops.
