Discover Zines at BMCC

The BMCC Zine Library offers an inclusive collection of unpublished, underground, and handmade resources. Housed within the A. Philip Randolph Memorial Library, the Zine Library fosters intellectual curiosity and transformation by providing access to unconventional materials and amplifying diverse voices that often lack mainstream platforms.

Complementing Traditional Resources

By offering a repository of materials that are often overlooked in library collections, the BMCC Zine Library ensures that underrepresented topics and alternative perspectives are accessible to students.

Encouraging Alternative Knowledge Production

The zine approach to knowledge production and sharing is particularly valuable in a world where traditional forms of publication often exclude alternative perspectives.

Teaching and Pedagogy

The Zine Library provides a point of reference for classroom instruction oriented toward creative self-expression and expansive notions of protest, enabling students and instructors to explore new ideas and challenge conventional wisdom.
