"The FRC (Folklike Resource Center) houses an extensive archive containing a wide variety of materials in multiple formats. The project addresses two goals. The first goal involves transferring all of these analog formats into a more stable digital medium. This requires the digitization of thousands of photographs and slides, hundreds of hours of analog audio and video documentation. The second goal - user accessibility. Website visitors will now have unprecedented access to the archive through audio, video, and image-based media. Never before has the material housed in the FRC been available to such a wide audience."
