bibliography.

The Agency has a physical library space at The Old Waterworks (TOW), developed in collaboration between TOW, the Agency of Visible Women (AoVW) and Grrrl Zine Fair.

It houses a growing collection of books suggested by AoVW members, the Grrrl Zine Library—a collection of over 300 feminist and LGBTQIA* specific zines—and contemporary art books, published artist’s books and art journals. We hope it will continue to be an invaluable resource for the local community, artists and students, providing access to material otherwise inaccessible or difficult to source here in Southend.
