East Falls Zine Reading Room

The EFZRR is a DIY space that we’ve run since 2015. It has a large collection of zines for visitors to enjoy and also serves as a show space. In the past we’ve featured poets, zine writers, comics artists, textile artists, full bands, video artists, and more.

As of 2025 we are taking a break from hosting events, but the library is open by appointment if you would like to come look through the zines or use them for research.

Catalog

After participating in the zine community for many years we have amassed over 1,600 zines and artists’ books in a huge range of sizes, styles, and subject matter. The zine collection is available for use during events and by appointment. We do not lend the zines out. So far we’ve cataloged over 1,500 of the items in our collection in a great big spreadsheet, which includes (as available) the zine’s title, author, subject, and up to four keywords. Below is an abbreviated version of the catalog, with some information left out to protect the creators’ privacy. If you’d like to search the full catalog or use the collection, please contact us to make an appointment.
