I received a UVA Library Culture, Engagement, & Community grant to expand the capacity of the Zine Bakery @ Scholars’ Lab public distro! Thanks to the grant program, I’ve got some funding to

test out a contraption that makes assembling zines quicker (vs. my tired hands—I’ve folded and stapled over 2.1k zines for SLab since 2024)
get a copyshop print run of zines to create a deeper backlog ready to refill our racks from as they empty
bring zines to table at the Charlottesville Zine Fest in October
