activities is the Small Mags Archive. We started this archive in 1983 and up to
now about 4000 magazines / 1100 different titles are stocked in this archive.
(They) are all magazines: -with a limited edition (max. 500) -without a real
commercial purpose -who are not distributed by a big company -that deal with
subculture or counter culture or the margin of official culture. Those mags can
be: independent art(ist) mags, underground papers, punkzines, little graphic or
satirical mags, specialized musicpapers, cassette gazettes, alternative poetryzines,
curiosa, free press, comix zines, various fanzines etc. At the beginning of
'87 we started Megazine Bulletin, a supplement to the media-newsletter, and
what's called a fanzine's fanzine. as you can see it's a little magazine, which
describes other zines, mags, newsletters, bulletins and so on. the purpose of
Megazine Bulletin was and is to promote the small press and to create a service
which is still unique in the Dutch speaking countries (Flanders and Holland)."
