Abstract

The notion of unhiding previously “hidden” collections is frequently invoked in the archival profession as a justification for increased attention to the processing, digitization, and description of archival materials. As the narrative goes, by removing barriers to access and developing robust metadata for archival materials, archivists can allow new audiences to engage with primary source materials in diverse and dynamic ways.
