The primary sources intended for inclusion will be broad-based across time, geography, and political viewpoint.

For those who may be unfamiliar with Reveal Digital, our focus is on activist, radical and often underseen voices within social movements, and our goal is to make these important primary sources easier for researchers to discover and use.

No financial contribution of any kind is expected or required from archives contributing materials. Upholding contributing institutions' stewardship and ownership of their collections is a central tenet of Reveal Digital. Source libraries and rights holders receive digital copies of images and metadata of all of the material they provide to a collection. Reveal Digital makes no ownership claims to the digitized content; all rights to the content reside with the original rights holders or with the source institutions for out-of-copyright material. Content pages in our collections include links to the rights holders and/or source institutions.

Contributors include a broad range of institution types, as well as independent scholars. Examples include: Museum of Performance and Design, Wisconsin Historical Society, State Library of Oregon, and University of California.
