We sometimes create collections for uploaders. Before you request a collection, you should create a List of the candidate items in your account (see Lists – A Basic Guide).
Once you have a list of 50 or more related items, you can send a link for that list to info@archive.org and we will be happy to consider creating a formal collection.
Until you have a collection, your items will remain in the public Community collections.
To create a collection we will need the following:
1. The email address(es) of the account(s) that uploaded the content.
2. A list of the item links or the URL of a search query which will identify them.
3. The name of the collection and a brief description (to be used on your collection page) of your organization and/or the material housed in the collection.
4. A suggested identifier (the tail of the URL) for the collection page (please use meaningful words and it should be 5-80 characters preferably lowercase and/or numbers only. No special characters or spaces).
5. At least one Subject Tag that describes the collection.
6. (optional) The logo you would like to display on the collection page. Best if it is at least 500p x 500p or at least 500px wide or high.
7. The archive.org account email address(es) that you would like to have administrative privileges for this collection. (These addresses will be able to upload directly to the collection as well as edit information about the collection).
Once your collection is created, any existing items will be moved to it and you will have admin privileges to upload to it.
