Investigating ways for the University of Missouri to widen access to rare or special collections owned by the University is a primary goal of the Print for the People Mizzou Advantage project. An additional goal is to develop communities of scholars, curators, and other interested members of the university community to define and articulate the need for digital collections in research and teaching. This report describes and analyzes a variety of digital collections and libraries created by other universities and government entities. Analyzing these collections can help create a stronger project model for the University and one that would suit the needs and resources of the University of Missouri
