Elements of Collecting: Hunting, Valuing and Polemicizing
In regard to the PCA specifically, at this time, it would help to get beyond personalities, and emotions. Yes, people have them, but they can get in the way of getting done what needs done, especially if a person, any person, strongly identifies with a specific method.
By analogy, success in sport is not just a matter of hard work and practice, it is today the careful analysis of all aspects of said sport, and experiments in strategies, training, etc.
No amount of past hard work by those involved with the PCA, or future work those currently involved with the PCA can guarantee success based solely on tradition.

Elements of Collecting: Hunting, Valuing and Polemicizing
First, we all need to acknowledge that Copyrights are a legal fiction. They were created for a sociatel purpose quite deliberately by a variety of governments throughout the world. The purpose was not to protect Intelectual property on the basis of an expansion of the rights of the individual to control their work, a noble idea, but rather the creation of the idea of Intelectual property was to foster innovation.
So, did the provision of a digital library by the PCA and it's restrictive access as a private library meet the spirit of Copyright?
If so, then perhaps it would be appropriate to lobby ones government to expand Copyright protection to this type of circumstance.
If however it does not foster innovation then perhaps Copyright protection is inappropriate and an alternative would be to look to European nations who have a different kind of protection for Intellectual goods which restricts the use of said goods which are culturally important.
This type of protection does not foster innovation, but it does make certain that important cultural works are not used for commercial purposes.
But maybe, someone needs to come up with a new type of protection for a situation like this.
