File 770

File 770 is a long-running science fiction fanzine, newszine, and blog site published and administered by Mike Glyer. It has been published every year since 1978, and has won a record eight Hugo Awards for Best Fanzine, with the first win in 1984 and the latest in 2018.

File 770 is named after a legendary room party held in Room 770 at Nolacon, the 9th World Science Fiction Convention, in New Orleans in 1951. Glyer started File 770 in 1978 as a mimeographed print fanzine to report on fan clubs, conventions, fannish projects, fans, fanzines and SF awards. In the 1990s, Glyer moved production of the fanzine to computer desktop publishing, and on January 15, 2008, he began publishing File 770 as a blog on the internet.

A print version of File 770 was produced until 2016. eFanzines.com began hosting PDF versions of the paper issues in 2005.

Awards
File 770 has won the Hugo Award for Best Fanzine eight times, in 1984, 1985, 1989, 2000, 2001, 2008, 2016, and 2018. It has received a total of thirty-one nominations over four decades. Glyer himself has also won the Hugo Award for Best Fan Writer four times for his work on File 770. Writing in The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, Rob Hansen and David Langford described the zine as evoking a strong feeling of community.

In his 2018 Hugo acceptance speech, Glyer recused himself and File 770 from future nominations. The next year, File 770 received enough votes to qualify for the Hugo ballot; it was not listed due to the recusal.
