Event Description

Seattle, Washington March 14 and 15, 2009

Zine librarians, collectors and creators are invited to the Richard Hugo House and the Zine Archive and Publishing Project for two days of discussion and presentation centered around the collecting and organizing of zines; be they in libraries, archives, infoshops, basements, or living rooms.

Following the Unconference model, this gathering will be participatory and open. Expected discussions of cataloging, organizing and promoting zine collections are expected among other topics. All members of the zine community are invited to join in and take part.

(A zine reading will also take place on Saturday, March 14...)
