“…27 The Downtown Collection at New York University's Fales Library similarly used its website and other programming to "spread the influence of the collection and help create an audience, maintain contact with downtown artists, and attract new donors." 28 However, LUMA's use of Facebook and email, along with its institutionally based Web page, has been more extensive than has been reported in the literature relating to documentation strategy.

Louisville, Kentucky, has a rich musical heritage, including an underground scene that influenced the sound of not only punk, indie, and hardcore, but also of popular music regionally, nationally, and internationally. In 2013, faced with the loss of several members of this scene over the course of twelve months, archivists in the University of Louisville Archives and Special Collections launched a project to document this important slice of Louisville's musical culture. The Louisville Underground Music Archive (LUMA) project successfully applies documentation strategy, paired with a strong community engagement component, to address the gap in the historical record related to this culture.

Although alternative arts organizations have been an important part of the development of contemporary art in the United States, they are historically under-documented for a variety of reasons including but not limited to loss of funding, poor record keeping, the often times ephemeral nature of alternative art, and a lack of understanding within the wider community about the role and importance of these organizations. Using Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center as a jumping off point, this article discusses the importance of documenting and archiving histories of alternative arts organizations locally while offering strategies for doing so.
