IPR Basket
One of the aims of the Dismarc project is to expand the use of archival sound recordings. Today, many archival collections are only available for listening purposes on premises. In some cases (broadcast archives), listening is possible by appointment only.
The development of internet and digital technology offers many new possibilities to make archival recordings more widely available. Digitisation has been recognised as the standard method for preserving historical sound recordings. Once recordings are digitised, they could easily be made available to all interested users. However, copyright law sets many limitations on this.
