Existing collections represent a significant untapped potential for future research. Their value is made possible, and often greatly enhanced, by the associated records that provide context about their discovery. Other times, physical collections may be incomplete or lost all together and the information about these collections is all that remains. To ensure that future scholars are able to make use of this information it needs to be properly preserved and accessible for discovery. Paper...
