This is a fascinating project that helps to illuminate the ways in which interactions between cultural memory organizations and audiences around collections are changing in the digital environment, and I think that the report will be of interest to many CNI-announce readers. Both a summary and full report, along with other material on the project, are available at: http://www.loc.gov/rr/print/flickr_pilot.html My thanks to Caroline Arms for the pointer to this work.
