'Participatory archives is a well-crafted and readable book which provides the first in-depth study and review of participatory archives and their relationship with the main stream archives whilst analysing them and their success on their own terms. It promises to be the authority on participatory archives for the foreseeable future and will always serve as a benchmark for the first wave of participatory archive activity in the Web 2.0 world.' -- Margaret Crockett * Taylor & Francis Online * 'Enhanced for academia with the inclusion of a listing of the contributors and their credentials, thirty-eight pages of notes, and a six page index, Participatory Archives: Theory and Practice would well serve as a Library Science supplemental studies curriculum textbook. Impressively informative, exceptionally well organized and presented, Participatory Archives: Theory and Practice is unreservedly recommended for library staff in-service training programs, as well as the Library Science collections of corporate, governmental, college and university libraries and library systems.' -- James A. Cox * Midwest Book Review * 'This volume offers an overview of the literature and theory of participatory archives, followed by concrete examples in practice...Each chapter includes a rich bibliography guiding the reader to the broader literature related to different aspects of participatory archives...Participatory Archives...contributes significantly to the archival literature, especially in the current context of digital transformations focusing on openness, participation, and collaboration.' -- Siham Alaoui * The American Archivist *
