    The Bethel AME Church Archive: Partners and Participants
    (Facet Publishing, 2017) Copeland, Andrea J.
    Community archives have proven vital for giving a voice to underrepresented groups. Formal institutional archives have traditionally represented the dominant narrative in society and continue to do so, excluding access to cultural records and artifacts of underrepresented groups. Well-funded cultural heritage institutions have the infrastructures of support to provide long-term preservation and access on a global scale. Connecting community archives to this infrastructure of support is the overarching goal of my research (Copeland, 2015). How to make that connection in a way that respects the community and the purpose of the archive remains to be determined. This chapter will detail my journey with one particular community and its archive.

    FAIR Data for Large Research Facilities
    (IEEE Explore, 2023) Brower, Don; Butcher, David; Murillo, Angela P.
    This workshop will bring together data managers, repository managers, administrators, and others who are responsible for, or interested in research data management at large research facilities. These facilities have unique issues due to a variety of factors, such as an extreme data volume, variety, and velocity. The workshop aims to provide cross-pollination between facilities that have similar desires to realize the FAIR principles. The organizers of this workshop are members of the NSF CI Compass FAIR Data Working Group, and the outcomes from these discussions will become a white paper and topics for future CI Compass webinars.

    Public Library: A place for the digital community archive
    (De Gruyter, 2015-03) Copeland, Andrea J.; Department of Library and Information Science
    This article explores the possibility that public libraries can be repositories for digital community archives. The overarching goal is to establish a case for public libraries’ developing digital community archives that are participatory and which emphasize born-digital items rather than digitized physical items. This discussion follows my own research and experience in this area to include personal information management, social media and the personal archive, and the accidental community archive, and demonstrates that public libraries can focus on communities’ current events and people rather than solely on those from the past.
