About 
The Document Academy (DOCAM) is a global collective
that celebrates documentation and documents of all kinds.
Through research, art and other discourse venues, the
Document Academy explores issues and applications in
documentation and documents across academia, the arts,
business and society at large.
The neo-documentalist tradition was borne from the
collegial relationship of Niels Windfeld Lund, Michael
Buckland and W. Boyd Rayward, which stemmed from their
meeting at CoLIS2 in 1996.
The Document Academy itself was founded and named in
a San Francisco cafe by Maribeth Back and Niels Windfeld
Lund in spring 2001. From the outset, they envisaged
workshops, conferences, research centers and
experimentation. To this day, the Document Academy is
not a rigid organization—there is no constitution, staff or
bylaws. Instead, the Document Academy community
comes together in an annual meeting.
Between meetings, the Document Academy convenes
virtually on its Facebook page, on the DOCAM listserv
and in its open-access proceedings
