ZAPP was started in 1996 with the personal collections of Gary Greaves and Chuck Swain. Since then, the collection has grown to more than 20,000 items, making it one of the largest zine collections in the world.

Black Friday Edit-a-Thon


Getting a database error when you search for an article? There is a problem on the back end, if an article doesn't exist, you are getting an error instead of the prompt to start a new article. We are working on it! In the meantime, it seems the only way to start a new article is by creating a link to a new article title on an existing page (like your own user discussion page) and then following that link and editing it.

Please consider joining dozens of zinesters this Friday to edit and update Zine Wiki!

First Time Here?

ZineWiki is open to contributions, additions and editing from anyone, anywhere, at any time. However, we do ask that you register a free account first, so that we can cut down on spam and malicious edits.

Or maybe you'd prefer to browse:

Feel free to add your project, contribute additional information to already existing pages, or to edit what’s already published. Subjects should be explained in terms of their relevance to zines and independent media.
