Funded Activity Summary

Do-it-yourself popular music archives: an international comparative study of volunteer-run institutions that preserve popular music's material culture. Enthusiasts play a crucial role in the way that popular music and its culture is remembered. This project looks at instances of community-based, volunteer-run archives which are working to assemble material related to popular music and explores the contributions of these 'DIY institutions' to the preservation of these artefacts for the future.
