Salford Zine Library's Page

Salford Zine Library was formed in January 2010 by Craig John Barr and Matthew Walkerdine. The archive sources work through contacting practitioners, poster campaigns and word of mouth(So please tell your fiends). There is no curatorship and we don’t wish to be arbiters of taste so all contributions are accepted. You can view the archive by visiting its home at Islington Mill, Salford or when it is touring. Salford Zine Library is non Profit and unable to purchase any work. The library also tours the UK visiting schools, universities, public art galleries and book fairs.

The Archive works on a donation only basis and is run by self-publishing artists Craig John Barr who gives his time in kind. If you wish to exhibit or show the library at your gallery, venue or event please get in touch. To submit your work to Salford Zine Library please post work to:
