I know of a zine that I would like to see in the collection!

If you know of another creator's zine you think we should include, you can let us know here.

I made a zine! I want to donate it to the collection!
We accept donations to our program, and will provide compensation for student works. Please review the information below to check if your zine fits the themes of our collection, then fill out this form and we will be in contact with you.

We are not looking for:

• Zines that do not address any of our collection themes (futurism, social/racial justice, student activism)
• Zines that utilize hate speech or encourage discrimination on the basis of race, sex, gender identity, sexuality, religion, disability, national origin, or other identity factors.* 

*We will still consider and accept zines that analyze and/or grapple with discrimination, hate speech, and other controversial subjects.

Other Information:

We reserve the right to refuse any zine’s admission to our collection for any reason. While your zine may not find a home in our pilot program, there are other outlets for it on campus and beyond. Please refer to the list below for local collections that may accept zines.

• Forbes Library
• Smith College Design Thinking Initiative
• Greenfield Public Library

A Note for Donors: Because our program is focused primarily on access rather than preservation, donated materials may be lost, damaged, or otherwise in need of removal from the collection. Please see the Deaccession and Removal section for more information.

We understand that many zines contain highly personal subjects. You may have donated a zine in the past and have now decided that you want it removed from our shelves. If that is the case, do not hesitate to reach out to us and let us know!
