Description: This DIY and metazine is written by the pseudonymous Louise Librarian, a self-proclaimed east-coaster, artist, and librarian, about her favorite structure for making mini zines and books:  an 8 1/2" x 11" piece of paper that, when folded, turns into a six-page book with front and back covers.  It includes a pull-out instructional sheet that folds into the form (a book that makes itself). The author shares stories about using the structure in her job as an academic librarian, and encourages her readers to use the zines in their academic research. She also emphasizes the usefulness of the structure in workshops for non-profit organizations as a means of community- and self-expression for makers of all ages. There is a list of one-page folding zines in the Barnard College Library collection, as well as a bibliography.
