The British Library Plans to Digitize Historic Sounds Collection

The Heritage Lottery Fund endorsed the British Library with earmarked funding to help the library digitize its archive of 500,000 sound recordings and other collections from the U.K. and provide them online. The project, which is planned from 2017 to 2022, will include oral histories, previously unheard musical performances and plays, wildlife sounds (e.g., underwater recordings of killer whales), and recordings from the Canterbury Cathedral (e.g., services and choral and opera performances).

For more information, read the press release.
