The work of sx: archipelagos is fantastic in terms of reviewing and promoting digital projects, and growing the community of practice and constellations of communities of practice in the process. This fabulous work fostered new conversations, including questions on if there was or could be a directory of catalog/metdata entries of  Caribbean DH projects, along the lines of the Electronic Literature Organization directory. This is a proposal for a discussion session. The session could include sharing on projects that need records, and discussion for the process to create those with intermediate steps and/or in planning a larger directory or another project to increase findability, and to then build upon that with sharing information on practitioners, practices, technologies, etc. to support further growing community and capacity. Currently, dLOC attempts to add records for DH projects, but this is not systematized at all and is not yet part of a community process.
