Abstract:
Recommendation 2.2 from the Library of Congress National Recording Preservation Plan published this year states the need to devise means to assist organizations in conducting comprehensive appraisals of audio collections with the goal of establishing priorities for preservation. This session will discuss recent developments toward these ends, focusing on efforts coming out of Indiana University, Library of Congress, AudioVisual Preservation Solutions, and Harvard University. Software, including open-source freely available applications, and associated workflows will be demonstrated and discussed. Case studies will be used to provide concrete examples of project logistics, details and outcomes, providing tangible, practical information to organizations in need of obtaining the information necessary to perform prioritization, planning, budgeting, and more around the preservation and access of their audio collections.
 | This session is presented in association with the AES Technical Committee on Archiving Restoration and Digital Libraries |
