Dear all, I am organizing a short discussion with Dr. C S Lakshmi, founder of SPARROW archives in Mumbai on questions of access to archives, sustenance of archives given the costs of infrastructure, and future of archives and the knowledges held within the documents when digitization takes place. The discussion will take place on Thursday, 29th Nov, at 5 PM IST at the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS), Bangalore.
Here is a link to the description of the session: http://cis-india.org/openness/autonomy-access-infrastructure-future-a-discussion-with-cs-lakshmi-on-sparrow-archive We will try and live stream the discussion. I will send the details to this list once I have done the setup on Thursday afternoon. It will be nice if you can join us in the discussion and ask questions.
