I completely agree Troll.
I have been working with a local community group on various projects which have generated an important assemblage of local prehistoric and early Roman wares. The community group now sees this assemblage as a useful reference collection for their own use, and is actively acquiring other assemblages from commercial projects done on their patch. (Which the commercial organizations are all too happy to give up-when they can find them) I personally have learnt more about the typology with reference to the accompanying specialist reports, than I ever was able in the past.
