​Libraries should archive photo albums from extinct local families.

Recently, I was looking through some family photo albums and it occurred to me that since I have no intention of having kids, those albums are going to become obsolete and destined for the garbage after I die.

I think it would be really cool if local libraries could function as archives for the photo albums of extinct families.

In the present day, photo albums are widely considered a waste of time but I think they are pretty important because I know for a fact that many generations of humanity would have killed for the ability to document every moment of their life.

Of course, this initiative would require every local library to have a lot more funding which I think is a net positive anyway.

Libraries should horde knowledge of all sorts for curious future generations.
