Yes, I'm still accepting submissions for the LIBRARY ISSUE of All This is Mine zine. I'm looking for stories, essays, art related to libraries, librarians, books, or reading. Some ideas:

-Fond library memories
-crazy library patron stories
-Book/movie reviews of books/movies that feature librarianship
-Library school: a waste of time?
-In a match between Dewey Decimal versus Library of Congress classification, who would win?
-How to catalog your CD collection in a way that a librarian would approve
-How books changed your life
-DIY Book repair
-DIY Book conservation
-Bookplate designs people can cut out and use
-Stories about library abuses (e.g. writing in books, cutting up books, etc.)
-The image of librarians: from spinster to sex kitten
-research on the internet
-library porn in pulp fiction

I'm looking for almost anything related to the broad theme -- the more variety the better. Comics, personal stories, researched articles, recipes, etc are all okay. Things am I NOT interested in are dull, academic writings or articles littered with abbreviations such as RLIN, MARC, and EAD. Also, things that are very time sensitive probably wouldn't work either since it will take me a while to put it together. If you've already written/published something that you think would be appropriate for this project, please send it along!

I'm working on a few stuff from the list above myself, so even if I don't get many submissions I'll still be able to put this together. I won't use everything, but if I do use your submission, you will get a free copy of the zine when it comes out.

Deadline: ongoing until I can finally get my act together and publish this
