CFP: Printing History Themed Issue: Community Publishing

Printing History is pleased to announce an issue highlighting community printing and publishing practices. We invite author submissions that approach print history expansively, with a focus on small press, DIY, ephemeral, fringe, and community-focused materials that challenge mainstream notions of the print historical record. We particularly welcome submissions spotlighting the printing practices of marginalized communities. 

We invite interested researchers and practitioners to share work engaging in the following topics:

  • Print as a means of collective organizing and communication
  • Print projects that articulate and affirm identity
  • Zines, artists’ books, small/underground/alternative press
  • Print material that challenges dominant historical narratives 
  • Activist ephemera and resource guides
  • Underrepresented, regional, and vernacular production and practice
  • Representations of non-dominant knowledge systems
  • Community-engaged creative and professional practice
  • Collaborative and nonhierarchical print production
  • Queer print cultures
  • Printing and publishing practices of BIPOC artists and communities
  • Critical bibliography

In general, Printing History follows the Chicago Manual of Style. An APHA style guide and further information for contributors can be downloaded here.

Submissions should be emailed to editor@printinghistory.org. If you have questions about this issue, the process, or the journal in general, do not hesitate to write. 

Submission deadline: March 31, 2025
