On February 16, I had the opportunity to participate in a very helpful conference on personal digital archives which included some discussion of their implications for cultural memory organizations. There is a very good detailed report on the meeting, along with some of the presentations, and other materials (video of the meeting will be added soon, I understand). The meeting web site is at:

I’ll be running a break-out session at the Spring CNI meeting to try to summarize and further develop some of the ideas coming out of this meeting. My thanks to Jeff Ubois, who has done the community a great service by pulling this meeting together.
