Toronto zine library now has
a takeout option

An unsual collection of zines in Toronto is now set up as a regular circulating library. According to a story on Torontoist, The Toronto Zine Library tucked away in the rehearsal hall of The Tranzac, has more than 1,000 zines (and counting, donations are encouraged).
These range from from semi-popular stuff like Montreal's Fish Piss to more obscure personal zines about, like, octopuses. Or whatever. They also do rad stuff like hold artist talks and workshops that blind you with their awesomeness.
Until recently the collection was only available for in-house perusal during Tranzac business hours but now it has been converted into a proper lending library. A one-time fee of $5 gets you full borrowing privileges.
