Re: [AV Media Matters] Archiving
Actually, that was an April Fool's Day broadcast by NPR about new, breathtaking preservation efforts being undertaken by LC. Caught a few
people by surprise.
Watch out for those people, they do it every year and always catch someone. Like many of us in Boston a while ago when it was announced on
NPR that the Boston Celtics (soft C)had voted to change their name to
the Boston (K)eltics.

I was talking to some folks around here today and heard this
rumor:
The National Archives has started archiving all of it's audio collection
to
78 rpm shellac audio disks! 2 1/2 minutes per side. It will take about
84
years to complete!
I'm stunned! Can this be true? If so, that's a LOT of
shellac.
