Hello Holly,
I hope you are well.
I am sorry but I got the date wrong and thought the deadline for the queer
zine library is Friday 9th of August :-(
I just checked and saw it is the 2nd.
Is it still possible to send something? I understand if not and sorry for
being a pain but I got the dates muddled up.
Many thanks.
Karin

Heya everyone
I hope you all have ice lollies and fans and things to keep you cool in
this weather.
It's our monthly queer zine library meeting next *Tuesday 27th at 7pm*.
We've had lots of new collective members join us recently (hello!) and so
if this is your first time attending then please know we are a very
friendly bunch. The first half of the meeting will be a chance for us all
to discuss QZL plans, particularly the upcoming 2022 tour, plus any other
ideas and suggestions anyone might have. Then the second half of the
meeting is dedicated to cataloguing. Instructions for cataloguing are here:

Topic: Queer Zine Library meeting
Time: Jul 27, 2021 07:00 PM London
Join Zoom Meeting
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82966205429?pwd=SlV6a1VQL0p2cmovMytzdEk5dEhCdz09
Also we are currently working on compiling a collaborative queer zine
library zine and everyone is welcome to contribute. I'm sharing the prompts
again below
Prompts:
- What do queer zines mean to you?
- Tell us about your favourite zine in the library?
- Have you ever attended a zine cataloguing workshop? Tell us about
your feelings on cataloguing, the problems with subject tags, can
cataloguing ever be truly queer or radical? Do you wish the catalogue could
do more?
- What can queer zines offer during lockdown?
- Which queer zines give you strength?
- What would you like the future of queer zine library to look like?
If we had all the funding in the world what would you dream up?
- Thoughts and feelings on the queer zine library during lockdown. The
tours we missed, the events we couldn't organise, the fact that many of us
have never met each other irl...
You can write/draw/create anything in response to any of these prompts.
The zine will be printed in an a5 portrait style booklet. You can format
your own a5 portrait pages if you like (no more than 2 pages), or you can
send us just your writing/art and we can cut and paste it together at the
next qzl picnic!
Deadline is Monday 2nd August.
Hope to see you all next Tuesday
Holly
