University of Illinois

UIUC’s University Library will develop and test an Audio-Visual Self-Assessment Program for preservation of and access to endangered recorded sound and moving image collections. Partners include the Illinois Heritage Association, the Consortium of Academic and Research Libraries in Illinois, and the following UIUC components: the Spurlock Museum, WILL AM/FM and TV, the Department of Dance, and the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. The result will be a flexible framework that can be used by any cultural heritage institution to help preserve its at-risk audio-visual holdings.
