Unlimited Priorities to Advise American Congregational Association on Strategic Partnerships Regarding Content
CAPE CORAL, Fla., July 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Unlimited Priorities (UPriorities), a firm specializing in support for organizations within the information industry, has been retained by the American Congregational Association (ACA), a non-profit organization.
The Congregational Library and Archives, administered by ACA, houses a rare book section containing an unusually rich representation of seventeenth-century works. It also retains 1,500 different serials and periodicals, newspapers from moral reform and missionary societies, the abolitionist press, women's writings, African American studies, and many other general historical and religious platforms.
ACA's goal in developing the digitization distribution and subsequent revenue stream allows them to fulfill a primary purpose of their mission which is the preservation of critical church records.
UPriorities will support the Library in achieving its goals. Specifically, UPriorities will identify potential partners, assess the existing collections, review the competitive landscape, and collaborate with the library and its partners on negotiating mutually advantageous terms and conditions for licensing, digitization and distribution.
Peggy Bendroth, Executive Director of the Congregational Library, said: "We are pleased to be working with Unlimited Priorities. They clearly understand our mission as a not-for-profit library, and have presented us with a plan that will both honor our organizational commitments and bring us closer to achieving them."
