| Oct 18, 2012 at 9:05 | comment | added | GeneJ | I like this answer because it reminds and informs us of the striking difference between official records and what might be called virtual collections.* And then there are proprietary online collections, too. This includes that virtual collections can take on different forms and have materially different value than the underlying official collection. *In the archival community, the term virtual collection seems to have a different meaning. For more than a month, I have been trying to come up with a better term. | |
