The Open Doors project of the Organization for Transformative Works is dedicated to preserving fanworks for the future. Our goal in particular is to preserve those fannish projects that might otherwise be at risk of disappearing. Our collections include a wide range of historical and contemporary fanworks, from mimeographed zines to multimedia projects to entire archives.
