Title: The Borough Is My Library
Description: Alycia Sellie interviews six individuals connected to the librarian community on their opinions about librarianship, how they entered the profession, and the future of libraries. The interviewees are Toni Samek, a teacher at the School of LIbrary and Information at the University of Alberta, Jessica Fenster-Sparber, school librarian at Passages Academy in the Bronx, Daniel Kahn Gillmor, Alycia’s friend working in tech, Karen Gisonny, a librarian at the NYPL, Aliqae Geraci, a librarian at the Queens Public Library, and Sanford Berman, a radical librarian. In the middle of the zine, Alycia includes a few zine library entries from the Zinester’s Guide to NYC. The black-and-white zine is encased in a manila envelope with an illustration of a subway window scene.
