Surveys
This grant has provided the funds for us to take the time to explore and find special collections, archives, hidden and fragile collections that can support the research of African poetry in all cultures and forms. We have taken the time to include what we think is or could be relevant and will discuss this at our Spring Working Meeting together to identify which items will be included in the Collections Hub Prototype.
First Survey period
This information has given us a broad scan of the relevant collections and items with sufficient details to help us make decisions on what to include in the prototype of the Collections Hub.
Second Survey Period
If needed this will provide the additional data we need on the collections for the development of the prototype site. If we do not have all the information on these collections, this second survey period will give you an opportunity to find those collections/items and complete the data.
