Since we can't have a physical zine exhibition during #IZM2021 the library team selected zines from the collections which resonated with us and put together a virtual walk-through of some of our most memorable and meaningful zines to us ✂️💙✂️

📍Where can people buy zines in your city or country?📍 I'm starting to map the zine world again, with a focus on places where people can buy #zines... Bookshops, galleries, zine vending machines, etc.
