FREE FOR PRESERVATION WEEK
Taught by NEDCC Director of Audio Preservation Bryce Roe

Audio collections are at a high-risk of loss due to the relatively short lifespan of their carriers and dependence on obsolete media for playback, but reformatting is a challenging and technical process, which can require the involvement of vendors whose services might be difficult to afford without outside funding. This webinar will introduce participants to a variety of grants that fund audio preservation and reformatting activities and offer guidance on selecting a grant-worthy project for their institution. Director of Audio Preservation Bryce Roe will also walk participants through each major section of a grant with tips and advice for preparing a successful application.

Participants who are eligible Certified Archivists earn 1 Archival Recertification Credit (ARC) through the Academy of Certified Archivists.
