| contents | Crowdsourcing Content to Promote Community and Collection Development in Public Libraries Carr, Melissa Eleftherion Library Services Public Libraries Poetry Electronic Libraries Cooperation Archives Preservation Community Involvement Academic Libraries With the Poetry Center at San Francisco State University, the author has begun to build an open-access digital repository for poetry chapbooks. The repository is essentially a chapbook exchange: a place for poets to share their current works. Users are invited to share their chapbooks via upload and as such gain access to the chapbook repository. The model is "take a chapbook, leave a chapbook." The mission is to provide a space for poets to correspond, convene, and collaborate. In this article the author would like to discuss ways libraries can augment and reinvigorate extant print and electronic poetry collections to maintain relevancy and reflect the liveliness and vigor of poetry communities. This proposal will discuss crowdsourcing poetry chapbooks from communities as a viable means of expanding existing poetry collections. |
