ABSTRACT Popular culture collecting in academic special collections and archives is sometimes still viewed within the institution as a challenge to traditional collection development, which has tended to emphasize the mainstream and enshrine privilege and power. This is especially the case when the cultures and media emphasized in such collecting might be categorized as being counter-cultural, DIY (‘do-it-yourself’), or somehow ‘other.’ This article consists of three case studies that emphasize recently developed popular culture-based collections at Rutgers University’s Special Collections and University Archives that focus on voices and communities outside archival norms of collecting: the New Brunswick Music Scene Archive, the New Jersey Regional Zine Collection, and the New Jersey Beer Collection. An emphasis on how faculty and staff have developed these collections by working with participants and creators outside mainstream popular culture leads to examples of how faculty and staff have engaged in outreach, particularly among students. Woven throughout are examples of challenges faculty and staff have faced around institutional acceptance, inclusivity, and cultural sensitivities along with work to overcome the challenges. The article concludes by considering future popular culture collection-building endeavours and engagement among students and community members.

与档案格格不入：音乐场景、地区杂志和当地啤酒的流行文化档案案例研究

摘要 学术专题收藏和档案馆中的流行文化收藏有时仍被机构视为对传统收藏发展的挑战，传统收藏发展往往强调主流和神圣的特权和权力。当此类收藏中强调的文化和媒体可能被归类为反文化、DIY（“自己动手”）或以某种方式“其他”时，情况尤其如此。本文由三个案例研究组成，重点是罗格斯大学特别收藏馆和大学档案馆最近开发的基于流行文化的收藏品，重点关注档案收藏规范之外的声音和社区：新不伦瑞克音乐场景档案馆、新泽西州地区杂志收藏馆、和新泽西啤酒收藏。强调教职员工如何通过与主流流行文化之外的参与者和创作者合作来开发这些收藏品，这导致了教职员工如何参与外展活动的例子，特别是在学生中。贯穿始终的是教职员工在机构接受度、包容性和文化敏感性以及克服挑战的工作方面面临的挑战的例子。文章最后考虑了未来流行文化收藏建设的努力以及学生和社区成员之间的参与。贯穿始终的是教职员工在机构接受度、包容性和文化敏感性以及克服挑战的工作方面面临的挑战的例子。文章最后考虑了未来流行文化收藏建设的努力以及学生和社区成员之间的参与。贯穿始终的是教职员工在机构接受度、包容性和文化敏感性以及克服挑战的工作方面面临的挑战的例子。文章最后考虑了未来流行文化收藏建设的努力以及学生和社区成员之间的参与。
