Fun Idea for Online Community Access

Is anyone in Virginia doing a project like this?

http://hold.cstx.gov

This community in Texas decided to start a program to help local folks preserve community history. They invite people to bring in photos and documents that relate to the history of the town. The program then scans the photos/documents, post them online for the community to be able to access, and then return the originals to the owners, along with archival storage folders to keep the items in.
