Zines and coll. dev.

I am a very cool librarian because I bought some zines for one of the students to use as a primary source.  When you study pop culture you need pop culture sources, I wasn’t finding them in OCLC, and I think that adding rare materials to the greater library collection is a pretty cool thing to do.   Now they will be available for other patrons at libraries with strict collection development policies.  We’re already making a name for ourselves as a library with small holdings who will lend any of them, and a disproportionate amount of our books are a little weird.  I’m proud to add to that tradition.
