About the RCLL Teen Legal Zine
Riverside County Law Library is beginning a quarterly online Teen Legal Zine in 2026. The goal for our Zine is to provide a space for teens to share their opinions and commentary on different discussion topics in the legal field. We want to know how these issues affect you, what you believe could be done, or open new discussions you believe are important. From Fast Fashion to the Rule of Law and the American Dream, we want to know your perspectives!
Types of submissions we are looking for:
- Scholarly Essays
- Personal Essays
- Collages
- Illustrations
- Mini Comics
We are interested in zine pages that explore the intersectionality between our themes and the legal world. Conduct research into the topic and share your findings with us. How does the topic impact your community? How have you been personally impacted by this issue? What is something you wish to get across to the public that you believe is important?
Each issue will have a different theme, posted to our website. Submissions and questions will be accepted through our Temecula Branch email ([email protected]) using the subject line, "Teen Legal Zine Submission – [Student Name]" along with a completed 2026 Teen Legal Zine Submission Form (Word Document). Our editors will strive to get back to you as soon as possible. Once we have gone through all the submissions, we will publish our completed Zine on the Riverside County Law Library Teen Legal Zine webpage.
Please carefully read the submission guidelines linked above and happy writing!
