Although a significant portion of its 675 linear feet of multi-format materials are digitized, there are still recordings to be digitized, including most of the collection’s open reel tapes. These tapes include field recordings of music and spoken word from Lomax’s many trips around the United States and the world. In this presentation, I will discuss steps we are taking to efficiently catalog and ultimately make this material available for researchers. I will describe the process of inventorying/cataloging of the over 2,000 tapes, as well as the shipment of the materials to the Packard Campus for Audiovisual Conservation in Culpeper, VA, where they will be housed in temperature-controlled vaults, and ultimately digitized. Because of the scale of unprocessed recordings, AFC staff will be working with a contractor to facilitate the creation of inventory records in batch. The contractor will be developing a script to transform existing databases and metadata about the Lomax tapes to conform to Library of Congress schemas. As an archivist with experience in audio preservation and in working with the Library’s audiovisual collection management database, MAVIS (Merged AudioVisual Information System), I will help provide the guidance and feedback to the contractors in the development of such a script. In the presentation, I will outline the project’s workflow and discuss lessons learned that might be of use to institutions exploring methods to increase efficiency in processing sound recordings.\u003c/p\u003e"]}},{"label":{"en":["Language"]},"value":{"en":["English"]}},{"label":{"en":["Publisher"]},"value":{"en":["Association for Recorded Sound Collections"]}},{"label":{"en":["Rights Statement"]},"value":{"en":["\u003cp\u003eCopyright Association for Recorded Sound Collections\u003c/p\u003e"]}},{"label":{"en":["Video Editor"]},"value":{"en":["Amanda McCabe"]}}],"summary":{"en":["\u003cp\u003eThe Alan Lomax collection is one of the most widely used and researched collections at the American Folklife Center (AFC).
