This blog will try to highlight other related initiatives worldwide so I am just putting in a link to the RLG Personal Research Collections Program.
A quick summary:
'this program area will engage partner institutions in an exploration of where personal research collections fit in the agendas of libraries, archives, and museums. By the end of calendar year 2007, we and our partner institutions should have a shared understanding of the level of institutional interest in managing personal collections, the range of available tools to support personal collection building, and a short list of partner and other institutions interested in co-development opportunities in this area.'
