The Race to Save America's Public Media History - Rebecca J. Rosen - The Atlantic I'm so excited about a new effort to digitize the archives of America's public radio and television stations. When its public-facing website launches in 2015, the American Archive of Public Broadcasting<http://americanarchive.org/> (AAPB) will hold digital files of 40,000 hours of footage and audio tape that contain the second half of the American 20th century as it unfolded. Among those 40,000 hours will be interviews recorded as African-Americans struggled to register to vote during the Freedom Summer; there will be the live speeches and press conferences of Robert F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan; there will be entire episodes of public-media favorites like *Mister Roger's Neighborhood* and Julia Child's *The French Chef*. http://bit.ly/1jkwgcM Source: http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2014/02/the-race-to-save-americas-public-media-history/283381/ See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/1jkwgcM+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar -- Peter Kurilecz CRM CA IGP [log in to unmask] Dallas, Texas Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org http://twitter.com/RAINbyte http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/RAINbyte/ http://paper.li/RAINbyte/rainbyte http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/archives/ http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/records-management/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/peterakurilecz Information not relevant for my reply has been deleted to reduce the electronic footprint and to save the sanity of digest subscribers List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
