Summary: |
This series contains the tape log indexes and the accession registers
for the audio tapes, video tapes, photographs and slides for the Florida
Folklife Archives from 1935 to 1995 (through 2001 for Florida Folk Festival
audio recordings). The materials referenced in these recordings date
back to the Works Progress Administration (WPA) recordings made in the
1930's and include recordings from most if not all of the Florida Folklife
Festivals since 1954.
The indexed audio tapes consist of reel-to-reel, cassette, and digital
tapes and are indexed by format and year accessioned (T-year for reel-to-reel,
C-year for cassette, D-year for digital). Also indexed are the video
tapes (V-year).
The index sheets list the tape or accession number, the collector (person,
group or organization collecting the material), the informant (the performer(s)
or person(s) being interviewed), date and place of recording, and specific
equipment used. The bottom half of the sheet is divided into three columns
headed: Time (Foot), Superscore; Place Names, Proper Names, Extraneous
Noises, Etc.; and, Subjects Discussed. These list the length of performances
or interviews recorded, who or what was being recorded, and the material
being recorded (songs, stories, interview subject).
The accession registers cover the above indexed materials as well as
photographs (P-year), slides (S-year), media or 16mm film (Media-year),
periodicals (PER-year), phonographic records (PR-year), and photographs
(P-year).
Also included are completed Tape Worksheet files. These forms contain
much of the same information included on the index sheets, except they
also list the subject under which the material from the tapes are cataloged
and the person cataloging the materials for the Folklife Archive.
