> Dear Melissa Dalton,
> 
> My name is Sharon Mizota and I’m writing because you are listed as a leader of the Society of Ohio Archivists. I'm working with the University of California, Irvine and the California Digital Library to study community archives’ access to sharing their collections online.
> 
> We recently launched the survey, Community-Centered Archives Survey: Sharing Your Content Online <https://sharonmizota-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/2ES3CXXJOdsV0h45Lw9pM0ORyVXDQ_UH4s_GbnvvavCXzycdniwHalBvr7YfbNyRILVqWuIOg6xWvhQTPSgEP-lOhPhF86YXncTh-XpJFa58kWqyqCQFpIRavfAoqPjnm3FSQiHyjA90JSCiE3ZDx9r-wKJitJ6L88E71c3KALwnirG5OLNN2GgMTQwzeDuBj-rVjX993M7mxGXExi0rwdWeWkZCtxkzcGBWj3gw>, and are looking for help distributing it to community-based organizations across the country. We define community-centered archives as organizations documenting the lives of underrepresented, marginalized, or disenfranchised people. These include both Community-Based Archives where archival work is mission-centric, and Community-Based Organizations where archival work is not mission-centric but that are doing archival projects.

> This survey seeks to understand the participation of these organizations in two online activities: 
> 
> 1) Contributing digital content to aggregation websites, such as the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) <https://sharonmizota-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/203NKNxt2V4YicQVoVAo6DLe_vEMK3aghlPOLVk1odvT5ycdniwFdUFmJcXs62b4fdKwj1m2MNtfZhGGNYPppd5SJvjAy_FBSSdKQ7Q5Bm9hHDZLEKoHaL_6aTyidSt8FhXch4TYXj1yD5Y0KMzEBRIxKQjYHv51fweDN6gkzMA>. 
> 
> 2) Creating online storytelling or exhibitions.
> 
> The results of this survey will be used to create a resource guide to collaboration between community-based organizations and other organizations, including regional aggregators. We hope this resource will help community-based organizations to share their content and stories more widely, and make aggregation sites and online exhibitions more inclusive.
> 
> This survey is being conducted by me, consultant Sharon Mizota, with colleagues at the University of California Irvine and the California Digital Library. It is funded by a grant from the Mellon Foundation.
