Zine Modules

The purpose of these modules is to introduce students to zines, their history in the United States, their role in academia, and how to make them (both by hand, digitally, and hybrid). Each module is accessible on its own, so faculty can assign specific modules without students having to watch them in order.

After clicking on the link to the modules (listed below), users will be prompted to enter a password and to sign a guestbook. The guestbook is in place to track usage of the modules, and though users will be required to enter their name in the guestbook each time they access the modules, they can choose for the system to autofill their information so they don't have to type it in each time. To get the password to give to students, simply email Mary Ruge with University Libraries and Art Museum and request it! Her email is [email protected].

There will be a fifth module meant for faculty (ETA mid-Fall 2026 semester) that will go into a bit more detail about different ways to use zines in class, discuss which type of zine would be best for a given assignment, and instruct faculty on how to use Hey,Zine! an online subscription program that converts any PDF into a readable, flippable zine (this is particularly helpful if a student wants to submit a digital zine because it creates a sharable link that makes accessing their work so easy). There will be a separate password associated with this module, so when you email Mary Ruge, specify that you would also like the faculty module password.
