Friend,
It is not a collage but a group of person who formed a group to discuss there opinion on various topics. You can say that its a discussion forum.
It comes under the human source of information.
Hope it works,

Invisible college is not an institution. It is a group of people and sometimes a single individual also who are having extreme base of knowledge in their field of expertise. Invisible college means human resources of knowledge. They might be academicians, librarians, scientists, technologists etc.

While some of the descriptions are partial and some are incorrect. The college here is a group elite scholars who share knowledge themselves in their network which is not public and open. The communication among them is not visible to the external world. This is the informal communication among the members of the network which is not visible.

Invisible college is a set of term used to describe the informal & personal communication processes prevailing among the scholars during World War II. There were limited number of periodicals in pre World War II and the scientists (mostly) used to keep themselves abreast of the latest happenings of their research through personal communications. Since they were not made public (Mostly the political Leaders of those days) and restricted among a handful of people, they are called Invisible College.
