They definitely need more exposure! Mark, that's how I originally conceived the process, but realized that it would require significant human resources to curate the digital crowdsourced collection (depending on the level of engagement of users, of course) and it doesn't look like the City is ready to devote the kind of money that would be necessary for that kind of human resource need. All that ties directly into what Bart was saying: digitization is going to require money and time, two things the City doesn't seem to want to devote to something like the Archives. Is there some way the Toronto online community can make this easier (both financially and resource-wise) for the City? Anyone have any ideas on what we can do to persuade the City that this is a good idea, and that we're willing to help?]]> http://www.blogto.com/city/2008/01/should_the_toronto_archives_be_on_flickr_commons/#c254887 http://www.blogto.com/city/2008/01/should_the_toronto_archives_be_on_flickr_commons/#c254887 Toronto, City Mon, 21 Jan 2008 12:40:03 PST http://www.blogto.com/city/2008/01/should_the_toronto_archives_be_on_flickr_commons/#c254879 http://www.blogto.com/city/2008/01/should_the_toronto_archives_be_on_flickr_commons/#c254879 Toronto, City Mon, 21 Jan 2008 12:05:39 PST http://www.blogto.com/city/2008/01/should_the_toronto_archives_be_on_flickr_commons/#c254874 http://www.blogto.com/city/2008/01/should_the_toronto_archives_be_on_flickr_commons/#c254874 Toronto, City Mon, 21 Jan 2008 11:40:00 PST http://www.blogto.com/city/2008/01/should_the_toronto_archives_be_on_flickr_commons/#c254873 http://www.blogto.com/city/2008/01/should_the_toronto_archives_be_on_flickr_commons/#c254873 Toronto, City Mon, 21 Jan 2008 11:30:59 PST
