Zines, zines, and more zines!

NYPL The New York Public Library's Teen Reading Ambassadors have been working with kids at Summer Learners Lab to make original zines.

🤔 What are zines? They’re “do-it-yourself” (DIY) handmade magazines that come in all different shapes, sizes, and formats.

💭 Did you know NYPL has its own zine collection? Visit the Stephen A. Schwarzman Building in Midtown Manhattan to see them for yourself, or take a look at our digital collection: https://www.nypl.org/about/divisions/general-research-division/periodicals-room/zines
