THE NATIONAL JUKEBOX och THE INTERNET ARCHIVE


Om man vill höra en inspelning av LANDSVÄGSTRALL från 1919, går det bra att lyssna här. Inspelningen är gjord i New Jersey 1919.
Amerikanska NATIONAL JUKEBOX, ett gigantiskt projekt för att bevara inspelat material har faktiskt 76 svenska inspelningar (The National Jukebox is a project of the Library of Congress Packard Campus for Audio Visual Conservation. The goal of the Jukebox is to present to the widest audience possible early commercial sound recordings, offering a broad range of historical and cultural documents as a contribution to education and lifelong learning)
Det finns massor med intresant material på the NATIONAL JUKEBOX, mest på engelska förståss.
Eftersom det är gamla inspelningar som kanske inte alltid är politiskt korrekta, har man gjor en reservation: "These selections are presented as part of the record of the past. They are historical documents which reflect the attitudes, perspectives, and beliefs of different times. The Library of Congress does not endorse the views expressed in these recordings, which may contain content offensive to users."


INTERNET ARCHIVE finns mer intressant att lyssna och titta på:
Introduktion:
"The Internet Archive is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that was founded to build an Internet library. Its purposes include offering permanent access for researchers, historians, scholars, people with disabilities, and the general public to historical collections that exist in digital format. Founded in 1996 and located in San Francisco, the Archive has been receiving data donations from Alexa Internet and others. In late 1999, the organization started to grow to include more well-rounded collections. Now the Internet Archive includes textsaudiomoving images, and software as well as archived web pages in our collections, and provides specialized services for adaptive reading and information access for the blind and other persons with disabilities."
