Author Carlos Colín and Lois Klassen
Tierra y Libertad / Little México is the latest issue in the artist project, Reading the Migration Library (launch - October, 2020). It is comprised of a poster/booklet, a pamphlet with a conversation between Carlos Colín and Lois Klassen, and a coloured paper band that holds the components together. The bilingual poster/booklet (flutter-fold) is designed to be included in the mobile Spanish language free library that Carlos Colín helped to set up for Mexican Temporary Foreign Workers (TFWs) in the Fraser Valley, near Vancouver, Canada. Boxes of books are available on farms for TFWs to borrow and enjoy. These mini-bibliotecas were initiated in conjunction with Colín’s exhibition, Little México, that took place at The Reach Gallery Museum in 2019. A statement about Dignidad Migrante Society is included at the end of the conversation.

Author Queer Zine Library
Queer Zine Library: Year 1 is a zine charting the first year of our mobile queer zine library and celebrating the power of radical LGBTQIA+ self-publishing. Featuring contributions from Queer Zine Library collective volunteers, visitors and hosts of the library, and zine readers; the zine is a love letter to queer zines. The zine looks back at the first year, how and why we started a zine library, how we plan tours, and how we catalogue. The second part of the zine features contributions from queer zine makers and readers responding to zines in the library collections and reflecting on the power of queer zines.
