- This is an
interesting article that’s been doing the rounds recently – a librarian from

Bingham Center for Women’s History and Culture in the Duke
University Libraries writes about why they’re not digitising zines (I wish it
was longer though, especially the section on print culture!): http://blogs.library.duke.edu/digital-collections/2009/09/21/why-were-not-digitizing-zines/
