Selection Criteria
Since this is an archive and the partnering institutions libraries and museums, just about any format within the subject matter will be accepted. i.e., books, dvds, newspapers, ephemera, relia objects, photos, etc. The only major stipulation is condition. If works are accepted that are fiction, that must be made clear in the processing and filing of the material. General works on the All American Girls Professional Baseball League can be accepted as well, but not many items specifically on the other teams in the league.
