<div style="">
<ol start="1" type="1" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<li style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><font face="Arial"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While I addressed the reviewers concerns there were two key issues raised that I refuted. I would like to
discuss these two comments from the reviewers and what your take on why they may have been said: </span></font></li><ol start="1" type="a" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; list-style: lower-alpha;">
<li style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While not essential for the paper, a narrative lit review may be better suited to your discussion.</span></li><li style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The current version of the paper would, however, benefit of some additional work to specify the research questions asked and
to tease out more of the analysed material. Right now it is unclear what is the specific contribution that it makes.</span></li></ol>
</ol>
<ol start="2" type="1" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<li style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><font face="Arial" style=""><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also, I am looking for advice on research goals and long term strategic planning. I see my research
as about the connections between personal and community memory-making in social media. However, I am researching and publishing on conceptualisations and manifestations of community archives in Australia, including identifying and analysing what are community
archives, who funds them, where they are located, who creates them and cares about them, how they are formed and what informs their creation. Are these areas too theoretical? Too practical? Too broad? Too specific? Not LARIS enough? Should I choose one area
over the other? Or is both OK?</span></font></li></ol>

<div style=""><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dr. Leisa Gibbons is a Lecturer in the Library, Archives, Records and Information Science Program at Curtin University in Perth, Australia. She has
worked in Australia and the US in higher education specializing in archives and recordkeeping. Leisa’s teaching areas include archives, preservation, GLAM convergence, and management of information services. </span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: normal;">Leisa’s
research explores the drive to document personal and community memory, especially in the use of social media. This area of inquiry often includes the examination of intersections between technological, social, and institutional systems. Prior to academia,
Leisa worked as a records management and archives consultant with ten years of working experience in organizational recordkeeping environments.</span><br>
