All About Zines

Learn about what zines are, how to make one yourself, and where to look at zines in Western Massachusetts (and beyond)!

Try Digital

You can create your zine digitally and then print it out or keep it on the web (or both!) Many of the templates seen in the analog section can be used similarly through digital programs.

The NMH Librarians have created an editable Canva template that you can use to create your own digital zine. Canva is a free graphic design program with paid options.

InDesign is another program that you can use to create your zines.

Here are a few more options, with zinesters specifically in mind for their use:
