About Us
The IMC Zine Library is a donation-based, volunteer-run zine library in Urbana, Illinois. The Radical Librarians and Anarchist Archivists collective started the IMC Zine Library, and our working group currently manages the collection and outreach. Over the last decade, thousands of zine makers sent us their precious words and illustrations, which are available for browsing. We aim to act as a Midwest nexus for zine making, collecting, and community art.
Our working group volunteers conduct many activities to maintain this local gem. We catalog zines, plan zine-making events, provide library tours, participate in the biennial Small Press Fest, and so much more. We need your help to sustain and grow the IMC Zine Library!
Here's how you can get involved:
-
Attend in-person general volunteer meetings, workshops, or join our discord. For info on these please follow our Instagram @uc.imczines or email us.
-
Browse the collection during IMC open hours.
- Request a tour for your class or group.
