As PADIYL — the Philadelphia Alliance of DIY Libraries — continues to work out our founding documents, we’ve been doing our best to find articulate attempts to explain the whats and whys of community collections.
I recently ran across this post (http://www.saadigitalarchive.org/blog/20120418-704) and thought I would pass it along.
There is reason to believe that SAADA (South Asian American Digital Archives) will be moving to Philly! If so, we consider this a great benefit for Philadelphia, and we hope to meet the team behind the Digital Archives soon.
