The Leonard Lief Library Zine Collection consists of zines that reflect life in the Bronx - as well as student interests and the College curriculum. The collection is comprised of do-it-yourself donated zines from the campus - as well as purchased titles from various distros [vendors]. The collection offers current and future researchers a unique perspective on the diversity, culture, and social fabric of the Bronx.
