Oz was a science fiction fanzine by Beryl Mercer (1924-2003).

The first issue of Oz was published in March 1965 in the UK, and distributed through OMPA, Offtrails Magazine Publishers Association. It was the successor to Beryl's previous zine Link. Twelve issues of this title appeared, the last in September 1969.

Oz featured contributions from Peter Mason, Archie Mercer (Vector), Don Studebaker, and Roberta Gray (Vagary, Vector).

Letters came from John James and Christopher Priest, among others.
