WELCOME TO THE SHERWOOD FOREST ZINE LIBRARY!
Started in October of 2012, the Sherwood Forest Zine Library is a lending library of over 2500 zines in central Austin. We are open every other Saturday from 2-6PM or by special appointment. Our collection spans decades, countries, and topics and we are always adding new zines to the catalogue. Membership to the library is free.
In addition to the physical library, we run a Virtual Zine Library with hundreds of free zine pdfs and links.

Checked out zines you need to return?

We have a dropbox at our front door for zine drop off anytime, day or night, no contact!
You can also donated physical zines to the library here as well.

Our Virtual Zine Library has hundreds of free downloadable zines and links to online zines. Our goal is to host and provide access to information, stories, and voices that are often buried in the mainstream media. Our collection ranges from art, poetry, and fiction to political theory, social issues, and historical discussion, and everything in between! We try to update regularly, so check back often as new zines are being submitted to us daily!
