There's a collector buying and re-selling queer & Latine zines against the creators' wishes. Do not buy zines from Libros Latino. If you sell zines to Alfonso Vijil, know that he may mark them up and resell them. 📚 Blog post www.zinelibraries.info/unethical-al...thezinereport.podbean.com

He doesn’t seem to have any zines listed anymore so maybe that’s progress of a kind?

Collector resale at massively inflated prices is not an unusual practice in special collections librarianship...but it should be, especially with living authors. Creator consent is essential. Libraries should vet their vendors carefully and regularly. 📚📜

If you're going to collect zines & you don't want to keep them, DONATE THEM. So annoying.
