• Investigation question
• Resources, collections, data sets: Order book for Parson’s turbines, African mines directory (published in South Africa, no copies in the British Library), archives of some of the companies that still exist. Element of crowd sourcing memory - with local communities. British newspaper archives that mention orders of Parsons turbines in Zimbabwe

• Tension ‘National Collection’ - what we consider in that collection and what independant countries, previously in the British empire, consider to be in this collection?
