Finally!



We are moved! with the help of a few loverly humans (thanks Barry and Tibbles) we moved in to GRCGED last week and we haven't had the chance to get cataloged in the lending system at GRCGED. Feel free to browse the zine collection while visiting us but unfortunately we cannot lend them externally yet.

you are in the right place!

Hey Hey Hey, Don't worry yer pretty little head, you are in the right place. Hamilton Zine Library has had a location and name change to The Arrow Archive in Guelph. We are under going a few changes so hang tight and we will get our shit back together soon! and we have a new email! woot woot! Who loves the cyber paper trail!

thearrowarchive@gmail.com

and for you who are new: Arrow Archive originally opened in The Steel City (Hamilton, Ontario) as The Hamilton Zine Library. HZL opened in fall 2007 at the Sky Dragon Center based on a small personal collection. The HZL made a reluctant but needed move in fall 2010. The Arrow Archive now lives and thrives in Guelph, Ontario. The Arrow has now grown to over 900 titles and is still growing.

London Circle A Bookfair



A visit to the first annual London bookfair brought home a few new titles and the need to create a new category: Race. Picked up so real good stuff, Please pass the privilege and Kill Me if You Can, Fool are just a few new titles to grace this new category. the zine library still isn't on the shelves at GERCED but I have her here next to me every night. Late November maybe the grand opening.... I wish it could be sooner believe me it is quite cumbersome to live with over 900 zines in yer bedroom.,and that's not including my personal collection.

We've Moved

Good and Bad news:
The library has a new home in Guelph Resource Center for Gender Empowerment and Diversity. oh it's a nice little space with a bigger library with a woman's studies focus. The zine library which is going though a few changes at the moment will keep its independence and be open during GRCGED hours.
What do you do with donations or item returns....???? Soon there with a basket in the basement of the sky drgaon for that purpose.
Also we will be working on a name change.....working on a few ideas... if you got any comment here!
Also would like to take this chance to thanks the Hamilton Community for giving HZL a place in yer hearts. What ever form that this zine library takes it's home town will always be Hamilton The Steel City. Keep reading, Keep creating. Zinesters foreva.

Ps. fag punk is almost in its tenth issue.... contact to get a copy in the mail!!!
