The Little Magazine Database (LMDB) is an ambitious project that provides a means for collecting, understanding, and exploring the breadth and variety and ultimately the importance of the little magazine in the Sixties. This era has been widely viewed through the lens of social political theory, while literary history has tended to slide over the sixties. The LMDB is conceived in the belief that little magazines were an important literary phenomenon that helped create the counterculture of the 1960s. The first step to understanding their influence is to understand what was in them.
