The Center for Cartoon Studies in Vermont

SCHULZ LIBRARYat The Center for Cartoon Studies
Located in the historic Bridge Street firehouse, on the edge of the White River, is CCS's own Schulz Library. Thanks for generous donations from publishers, artists, and collectors the world over, our collection is abundant and unique. From our selection of contemporary graphic novels, to our out-of-print and rare collections of gag cartoons and classic newspaper strips, the Schulz Library is a dream come true for the cartoonist bibliophile.

In addition to comic books and graphic novels, the library holds an extensive collection of books about cartooning – both academic and instructional. Our reference section is a great resource on a variety of fine arts including design, illustration, animation, and photography. Our periodical section contains a near-complete run of The Comics Journal.

Unique to the Schulz library is our zine and mini-comic library, a one-of-a-kind collection of handmade publications. Students can browse through comics' untold history, and draw on this collection when making their own publications. And of course, in honor of our namesake, the Schulz library has an admirable collection of rare Peanuts books which span Schulz's career. The Schulz library is open to CCS students and is equipped with high speed wireless internet.

Hey Bob! Congratulations on your new Blog. It's good to see you online. I also wish you and the Cartoon College great success. You have a great deal of experience to offer other cartoonists, and I'm sure your students will benefit from your classes. Keep up the good work!

folks, you need to check out Kevin Frank's work at www.kevinfrank.net. Charles Schultz said he has a tremendous amount of talent and was happy to see him a fellow King Features Syndicate Strip cartoonist. Keven resides in Canada now and has a funny book about Americanos living in the Great White North called True North Comics, check it out at his website and if you are not offended by his work then shame on you!!!!!!!!!
