Description
This book examines the changing relationship between communities, citizens and the notion of the archive. Digital resources have made archiving widely accessible, and there is now a growing plurality of practices associated with collecting and curating. Using a range of case studies, this book challenges perceived barriers to collaboration between communities and archives and promotes the value of co-creation.
Reviews / Votes
"A testament to the vibrancy, depth, and diversity of collaborative research practices involving archives and archiving in the UK. It examines the challenges of collaboration, but even handedly celebrates the many benefits afforded by such modes of work." Richard Clay, Newcastle UniversityMore details
