Deadline Extension
We are extending the deadline for BADL contributions to 3/1.
We are also relaxing the requirement about how many submissions we need from each person. We would like to get as many contributions as possible from each artist, but we don't need 5 books or 10 paintings-- any number of things you would like to send is fine. Remember that this is a library, though, not a magazine-- do not send individual poems/stories, but instead books/chapbooks. We need a certain "critical mass" of items to make a successful library in the next few weeks, but you are welcome to continue sending contributions after 3/1 as well. Like a traditional brick-and-mortar library, we can't open our doors with just a few books, but we want as much stuff as possible so we can represent the Buffalo community accurately.

Questions about the BADL
There have been a lot of questions about the BADL about rights, why we're collecting work, etc.
In brief:
Rights: We will not own the rights to whatever we reproduce on the digital library. If you have any questions about who owns the rights to your work, please consult whatever contract you've signed with your studio/publisher/etc. We do not know who owns the rights to your work, but in most cases even if you've published/performed your work, you still own the rights unless a contract specifically states otherwise.
Reason: This is a project we're doing for school. It may be online for a few months or a few years, and is merely a prototype. If someone wants to maintain it after we get it going, then we can discuss that at a future date.
Collection: We're collecting work just as we would for a normal library, so don't worry about your work being "judged." We want to represent as broad a sample of Buffalo arts as possible.
Please read the FAQ closely for more information.
