Abstract

This chapter assessed the role of universities' libraries on their collection of marginalized community records. The function of collecting marginalized archives was supposed to be performed by the National and Provincial Archives of South Africa, as the National Archives of South Africa's mandate is to collect records of marginalized communities. However, it seems that the National Archives of South Africa is behind on achieving the collections of marginalized communities. Hence universities are progressive to enact mandates to collect records of marginalize communities. South African universities close the gap of undocumented South African history by collecting marginalized records.
