In the news: Portico Pilot Project Offers Digital Preservation to Underrepresented Community Collections
Kate Wittenberg, Portico Managing Director, sat down with Lisa Peet at Library Journal to discuss our organizational commitment to DEI, using the preservation infrastructure we’ve built to support at-risk collections, and the challenge of identifying and connecting with underrepresented community archives.
The resulting article, Portico Pilot Project Offers Digital Preservation to Underrepresented Community Collections, delves into the motivations behind the pilot and highlights those archives working with Portico to preserve their uniquely valuable collections:
- Against All Odds: The First Black Legislators in Mississippi
- Bracero History Archive
- Emmett Till Memory Project
- Invisible Histories
- Ozarks Afro-American Heritage Museum
- Pilbara Aboriginal Strike
