Countering
Marginalization: Incorporating Zines Into the Library
is an article by Jason Kucsma, editor of Clamor Magazine
and former zinester. It\'s longish and interesting and it
is on the web as a recent supplement to Library Juice. Kucsma
writes, \"The
acquisition of more alternative
literature titles can help bridge the gap between the
traditional notion
of a library that focuses primarily on the printed word
and the more
unconventional idea of the work of libraries that we see
in the Popular
Culture Library. Included in the realm of alternative
literature are the
independently produced zines that have exploded in
numbers during the last
twenty years.\"
