Zine Yearbook #3 (1998)

Zine Yearbook is an anthology zine highlighting the best in independent publishing and small press from the previous year. It was published annually by Clamor Magazine from 1996 to 2004, and #9 was published in 2008 by Microcosm Publishing.

There are thousands of small press, independent zines in publication today, and the Zine Yearbook seeks both to document these efforts and to provide some well-deserved visibility and recognition to people who make the zine world the vibrant community that it is.

Where most books on zines seek to categorize, label, and analyze the small publishing revolution, this series simply lets you decide for yourself by providing real excerpts from current publications. This book also serves as a great introduction for anyone looking for a place to get a foothold in the vast zine world. Contact information is provided for all zines included, as well as an extensive honorable mentions section.

After a three year hiatus and uncertain future, Zine Yearbook #9 was edited by Sparky Taylor, Brittney Willis, Dillon Vrana, Steven Stothard, and Joe Biel and published by Microcosm Publishing in May 2008. It continues in the same spirit and criteria despite the change in the editorial board - though new features will be added [additional details wanted]. At 240 pages #9 is the largest Yearbook yet and proof that zines are not dead.
