FAQ

 

A zine is a self-published, low circulation, non-commercial, alternative printed media resource. Zines are usually booklets or magazines made using the techniques of copy, pasting, and photocopying, and are often produced by one person. Zines typically have a small circulation of fewer than 1,000 copies.
