Through collaboration that is mutually beneficial and authentic, archives and libraries serving underrepresented communities can expand their capacities to build and manage transformative digital projects. The panelists describe four such projects in which Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) are engaging in collaborative initiatives that are mutually beneficial and leverage talent, skills, and collections that broaden the reach of historic resources.
