Beverlyophiles is a Star Trek: TNG fan club..

Kimberley Junius, a fan based in Chicago, started the club with Lillie Dean, based in Florida, shortly after Gates McFadden was removed from Star Trek:TNG.

The "'philes," as they called themselves, often met up at conferences such as Shore Leave and arranged member meetings in the Midwest and California.

Club Publications

Junius was the primary publisher and editor of the club's zines, but for a short period of time, guest editors also produced the monthly newsletter, including Daniel Van De Wiele, an active duty soldier who had joined the club while serving in Korea, Tanya Chang and a group of 'phile fans in Canada, and Patience Sibeal.

Among the zines produced in conjunction with the 'philes were The Beverly File, Poems, Prayers and Promises, a collection by Junius, Asbestos Envelope, an adult zine and its newsletter Beverlyophiles.
