Abstract

This article offers a context for examining archival audio holdings, determining preservation needs and priorities, and planning audio re-recording (reformatting) projects. It addresses such issues as identification of the most vulnerable recording types, the meaning of "preservation re-recording," and the skills, equipment, and personnel that are necessary for working with older recordings. The information provided is drawn in part from the experiences of archivists at Georgia State University during an in-house archival audio re-recording project funded by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission.
