"What I particularly like about this document is that it is a scanned image of a printed text calling for better access to an older text that is being kept in an archive."

I really like that Irene included this particular document in her archive. It is interesting to think about the layers of possibility that archives enable -- not only can we, as Irene mentions, access copies of original texts in archives, digital archives enable wider access to these texts alongside other relevant information, such as commentary related to the access and preservation of the original.
