I'm trying to find things to read for a funding application (blog posts, articles, whatever) about archive services as spaces of power, but specifically institutional / national archives (so not stories of how community archives resist power, but how somewhere like the National Archives or a university archive thinks critically about itself as a place of power and then does something practical about it)

any suggestions gratefully received

Very old Krita tests form when I tried it first. These were made based on reference pictures from DeviantArt I think (?), collected at some point during the last decade or so. Sadly I don't have the particulars anymore.
