Yes, definitely include archives! If you think that other cultural institutions (museums, galleries, etc.) should be included, feel free to add them. A separate section, as above, seems like a grand idea to me.

Hi,
What does "Where is the line?" mean? I ask because U. Wisconsin's Little Magazine is in Special Collections here and we have a tumblr and it's listed under "Where is the line?".

I had that up above originally, someone else moved it. Since I have been embedding multiple pages from the same institution under one heading, I put it under "University of Wisconsin-Madison" above.
