This panel is made up of library and archive workers who have developed and organised zine collections in a range of institutions. The session will have four short presentations followed by discussion and will consider the ethics\, challenges\, and joys of zines in library and archive settings. \nSpeakers: \nHolly Casio (she/her) and Kyle Gibbens (he/they) co-founders of the Queer Zine Library\nNicola Cook\, Wellcome Library\nTavian Hunter\, Stuart Hall Library at Iniva \nBiographies: \nNicola Cook (she/her)\, Librarian\, Wellcome Collection. I’m part of a team called Collections Information where I primarily catalogue and classify all formats of library material\, and analyse and improve our metadata for increased discoverability and access. In 2017\, I founded Wellcome’s zine collection (officially launched in 2018) which primarily covers subjects like health\, illness and the human condition. We’ve just surpassed cataloguing our 1000th zine\, and you can browse our titles online here: https://wellcomecollection.org/works?genres.label=%22Zines%22 \nKirsty Fife (they/them) is a Lecturer in Digital Information and Curatorial Practice in the Department of Information\, Languages and Communications at Manchester Metropolitan University.
