Abstract of the previous published article (Living archives for the future: Ein Plädoyer für das Sammeln und Archivieren von feministischen Zines): Von der historischen Frauenbewegung bis zur gegenwärtigen queer-feministischen Bewegung haben Feministinnen ihre Anliegen in selbstpublizierten, oft handgemachten Zeitschriften, Pamphleten und Flyern kundgetan. Feministische Zines (selbst-produzierte und -vertriebene Magazine) zeigen eindringlich, dass sich viele Mädchen*, junge Frauen*, LGBTQI und marginalisierte Menschen in der Gesellschaft und in den Massenmedien nicht gehört oder miss-repräsentiert fühlen. Sie produzieren daher ihre eigenen, alternativen Medien, in denen sie selbstdefinierte und ermächtigende Bilder, Inhalte und Netzwerke entwerfen und gesellschaftliche Kritik üben. Insbesondere in der „Riot Grrrl Bewegung“ ist eine Vielzahl an Zines entstanden. Ein Teil davon fand Eingang in die „Grrrl Zine Sammlung“ an der Universität Salzburg. In diesem Beitrag lege ich dar, was sogenannte „Grrrl Zines“ sind, warum wir sie sammeln sollten und welche Archive und Bibliotheken dies bereits tun. Obwohl es verschiedene Herausforderungen dabei gibt, argumentiere ich, dass Zines als wichtige, wenn auch unkonventionelle, chaotische und schwierig zu archivierende Artefakte und als ‚living archives‘ von Archiven und Bibliotheken gesammelt werden sollten.;From the historic women’s movement until the current queer-feminist movement feminists have published their issues and concerns in self-published, often hand-made magazines, pamphlets, and flyers. Feminist zines (self-published and -distributed magazines) show vividly that many girls, young women, LGBTQI, and marginalized people do not fееl heard or misrepresented by society and mainstream media. Therefore, they produce their own, alternative media in which they create self-defined and empowering images, content, and networks and express social critique. Especially in the “riot grrrl movement” a wide variety of zines arose. Part of this zine production found its way into the “Grrrl Zine Collection” at the University of Salzburg. In this article, I show what so-called “Grrrl Zines” are, why we should collect them and which archives and libraries do so already. Although they face some challenges, I argue that archives and libraries should collect zines as important, even though unconventional, chaotic, and difficult to archive, artifacts and as “living archives”.
