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.
Each 17th of March
In 2014 the library displayes the collection at SSZ-Sued, an small exhibition space in Cologne, Germany. Starting March 13th there will be a presentation or zine launch with new zines by Missis Nasty aka Franziska Nast, Torben Röse, Marco Zumbe, Tom Krol, TFGC Publishing and TBOOKS COLOGNE. On friday there is a reading with zinister Al Burian (Burn Collector), as well as a library introduction with Victoria Neuman on Sunday 16th.
The Collection
Among zines, fanzines, minicomics, newsprints and other small press publications the library hosts a "motley crew" of zines produced by young people, sometimes related to workshops held by artists, writers and/or zinisters at schools or other facilities or as a private event. These publications are predominantly in German or English language.
List of these zines (among others): Fucking Different - irgendwie cool! (2011), Freche Früchte (2010), Super Kauke (2010), 100 Morde Wald (2011), Our World (2011), Politik hat Burger Pflicht (2012), Der verhexte Raum (2013), Black Fleck (2013), Peng! Bumm! Boing! (minicomic 2013), Kunstkloake (2013) etc.
