The first Library Journal zine reviews column is out!!!
The print version has a cover image of Sugar Needle. The online links to a couple of the zines' websites. Other than that I think the online is comparable content-wise.
So the general idea is that I'm editing a quarterly column of zine reviews for Library Journal. The inside editor is Anna Katterjohn, who has published two posts about the new column:

http://www.libraryjournal.com/blog/770000077/post/1110022711.html.
Specifically I plan to alternate one column with multiple reviewers like the one just published, with a themed column and a guest writer. Miriam DesHarnais from BCPL has just turned in the first draft of a column on minicomics for the May 1st issue, and Sonya Green, newly of LibraryThing will do medical zines for November 1. The next sampler, featuring reviews by Emily-Jane Dawson of Multnomah PL, Celia Perez of Harold Washington College in Chicago, LIS student and zine fest organizer Michelle Downer, Courtney Bennett of Brooklyn Public Library, and Laura Jewell from Texas.
Thanks to Rebecca Miller, Francine Fialkoff, and Anna Katterjohn for making this happen.
If anyone wants a pdf of the article, let me know.
