OHSU Health Zine Library
About
The OHSU Health Zine Library aims to provide the OHSU community with a variety of contemporary zines across subject areas related to health, wellness, and the human condition. A zine, short for fanzine or magazine, is a DIY, self-published, non-commercial publication typically made in limited quantities and edition sizes. Zine creators are often motivated by a desire to share knowledge or experience with people in marginalized or otherwise less-empowered communities.
