Acquisitions and Permissions

 Many universities and institutions have budgets for zine and material acquisitions. The Zine Librarians Code of Ethics encourages purchasing zines to demonstrate respect for the value of a zinester’s work. As far as the material I have created, I do not give permission to make unauthorized copies even if the material is out of print. Purchasing any of my collections from third parties more than likely means they are unauthorized copies and others are profiting from my work. If you are purchasing or acquiring my zines or material I have created from a third party, please ensure they are original copies and not unauthorized copies.

If you need info about which of my zines and materials are available and you need this info for an acquisition request form, please email me a copy of the form.
