The St. Patrick's Zine Library is a "traveling" zine library. It is open every 17th of March from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (regular opening hours). There is no official permanent residence for the collection and once a year the library pops up on different locations, "to save the kids from the forces of evil" (as stated on a flyer/invitation card).
The library was founded by an anonymous person and is run by volunteers.
In 2014 the library displayes the collection at SSZ-Sued, an exhibition space in Cologne, Germany. Starting March 13th there will be a reading with zinister Al Burian (Burn Collector) and a presentation or zine launch with new zines by T-books Cologne, Missis Nasty aka Franziska Nast, Torben Röse and TFGC Publishing.
