- The Zine Collection
- Description
- A collection of zines designed by Texas State University students. This collection is curated by librarians at Texas State University. And as librarians, we recognize and respect that zines can be created to oppose the norm and highlight marginalized people's living experience. They can be permanent, ephemeral, celebratory, or incidiery by nature. Therefore, we strive to adhere to the Code of Ethics put forth by the Zine Librarians Interest Group. Because of this, we strongly support zine creators who want to remain anonymous and have their work alone entered into this collection.

Artist's books
Original art books created by Marc Snyder & other artists, which start as a mixed media image, incorporating drawing, painting, collage, rubber stamps, photographs, and printed text. Then the image is xeroxed onto high quality resume paper, then cut and folded in a very clever way to make an eight page book. These are single-sheet origami or maze books. Some issues are a bit different from the typical "book". For example (2013 [no.2]): On the envelope was a linocut of a howling dog, with "Rex Howls At..." in pencil, with another linocut in the envelope title "The Moon". These books were purchased through the Book of the Month club that the artist offered. They were mailed almost every month. -
