Title	Auburn Student Zine Collection
Description	A Zine, also known as fanzine, is a self-published work of text and images usually produced by a photocopier. Zines were originally created by sci-fi enthusiasts in the early twentieth-century as a forum for dialogue, free from corporate editors or publishers. As a freeform project, fanzines became a centerpiece for freedom of thought, sharing ones thoughts or ideas, fanfiction, "do-it-yourself", comics, music, etc. Zine-making to this day remains a cornerstone for marginalized voices who want to share their ideas and information about things they love. This collection, donated by Associate Professor Derek Ross from Auburn University Department of English, contains student work from ENGL 7030: Studies in Technical and Professional Communication. The course focuses on the study of research and writing for special purposes and novel situations. This accession contains the Zine Collection of student project pamphlets from 2018. Only two out of the collection have individually identified students: Kayleigh Pears and Jeffery L. Jackson Jr. Each pamphlet is on a different scholarly subject matter.
