Considered by many historians and scholars to be one of the
most important audio collections in the world, thousands of
tapes in the Los Angeles-based Pacifica
Radio Archives are in danger of permanent damage caused
by aging. Internationally recognized sound preservation experts
have advised Pacifica to conduct an immediate review of the
endangered tapes and to transfer them to new mediums, such
as digital audio.
