The Indiana University Archives of Folk and Primitive Music [Part 2]

Abstract

Sheet catalogues for each collection indexed are available in notebooks for use with the tape recordings. The catalogues contain the documentation furnished by the collector plus information added by the archival assistants in processing the collection. The Archives operates as a reference library. Visitors select by means of the indexes the recordings to which they wish to listen and list the collection titles and finding numbers on cards furnished for this purpose. An attendant then gives them the tape rolls and catalogues. Tape players are available for the use of visitors.
