1. The following question, I think, is beyond the scope of the class, but I will ask anyway: since I'm interested in audiovisual collections, I was wondering about the barriers not just in access and continued (or any) use, but funding and sustaining such materials. Here am I thinking about finding and then maintaining the equipment required for digitization, or even just playback.
2. Regarding institutional repositories, it seems as though it's mainly geared toward faculty, and even then, perhaps some faculty may not be interested or are aware of such a resource for their preprints, etc.. I'm not quite sure whether there is the same push for students---especially, for instance, undergraduates working on their senior theses---to deposit their work in the IR.
