Category: Community and Personal Collections

Community and personal collections contain digitized representations of items that are not held in a library, museum, or archives. These may be personal or organizational records that are held by their original owners but that have been lent to a cultural heritage organization so that they could be digitized and shared with the public. Some of these items are also “born-digital” materials, such as digital photographs and text files.
