QUESTION: zine cataloging

question / pregunta: 

Hi,
I'm beginning a paper about cataloguing zines and self-published material. Do you know of any good articles about cataloguing zines? Do you know of any notable zine collections? Any major zine collections I should know about in the New York Metropolitan area? Any information about how to catalogue zines would be much appreciated.

Thank you,
Irene

QUESTION: Progressive/Radical Listservs, Blogs, Facebook pages, etc

question / pregunta: 

I am researching progressive listservs, blogs, web-journals, and news sources for the International School for Bottom-Up Organizing. We want to be able both to learn what people are addressing, as well as send out information on what we are doing so that there can be cross-collaboration and movement-building.

We're especially looking for groups/orientations that address or are interested in the following: anti-oppression, women-led/feminist, people of color led/anti-racist, community organizing, anti-authoritarian and are not limited to the U.S. or to english. The point is to be able to connect people who are actually doing this work, or who want to.

I know that there are millions of such resources... but getting a start would be immensely helpful- I imagine that someone has already done a lot of this work! Thanks so much!

QUESTION: reference for histories of music on the Lower East Side

question / pregunta: 

Hi--
I'm researching the countercultural implications of the LES music scene between 1960-1990. Resources for the area's political and cultural history are fairly abundant, but I have not been able to find anything specifically about music... I have found a lot of useful information by sifting through the Village Voice and the East Village Eye archives, but I was wondering if there are any journals dedicated to music from this time period?
Thanks!
