It was motivated by recognition that communities are encountering real barriers to organising and connecting to resources and each other. In the field of heritage it is often difficult to access archival materials from public cultural institutions owing to bureaucratic, commercial and geographical barriers, something that impedes community research and connectivity. It is often difficult to establish relationships between communities and institutions that could and should be mutually enriching.  We have been asking how best to approach these problems and deal with issues such as copyright, collaborative working, impact and building an open source digital environment to facilitate connectivity and build a set of lasting legacies. We now want to widen our conversation by bringing together community groups, activists and campaigners, researchers, creative professionals, cultural institutions and policymakers interested in developing and promoting research, education, collaborative working practices, policy and activism around the notion of an open access digital resource. To celebrate the launch of *Pararchive* and our community partnersâ research projects we invite conference contributions around the following suggested themes:  Creativity and innovation Co-curation models Co-design and co-production methodologies and experiences Collaborative practices and community-based participatory research Copyright in participatory projects Conservation of artefacts and collections in the digital age Data ownership and open data Digital literacy Digital storytelling Digitisation of individual and community memory Emerging business models Evaluation and measurement of impact in co-produced research Future notions of digital archives and libraries Geographical linking Inclusion/Exclusion Memory in the arts/digital art preservation Museum and media archives Partnership models between communities and institutions Principles of digital data recording and cataloguing Research ethics and research data management (Self)-Representation, identity and privacy in digital public spaces  We are also interested in hearing about related screening materials, project outcomes and community creative practice.  We welcome contributions from all communities, both inside and outside of academia.  *Important dates:* *Deadline for submission of abstracts*: October 1st 2014 *Notification of acceptance of abstracts*: November 1st 2014 *Deadline for registration*: Main registration for the conference will be free and details of registration and a booking link will be advised after the summer break.  Proposals to a maximum of 300 words should be sent to:  [email protected]  Please address any enquiries to the same email address.  -------------------------------------------------------- MeCCSA mailing list -------------------------------------------------------- To manage your subscription or unsubscribe from the MECCSA list, please visit: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=MECCSA&A=1 ------------------------------------------------------- MeCCSA is the subject association for the field of media, communication and cultural studies in UK Higher Education.
