    (Oregon Tribal Archives Institute, 2013-07-17) Georgitis, Nathan
    Sound recordings are compelling cultural and historical documents with great potential for instruction and research, public programming, and personal enrichment. Many sound recordings are at risk of loss due to the inherent instabilities of their materials, their sensitivity to mishandling and poor storage conditions, and the threat of technological obsolescence. Access to sound recordings over time depends on an informed and active management program. This presentation provides an overview of the challenges of managing sound recordings in archives and speaks to the qualities of a successful management program.

    Imagining the Northwest : A Digital Library Partnership in Oregon
    (Dublin Core Metadata Initiative, 2003-10-01) Harper, Corey A.; Georgitis, Nathan; Hixson, Carol G.
    This paper documents the development of a digital library of still images created by photographer Lee Moorhouse on the Umatilla Indian Reservation at the turn of the 20th century. The University of Oregon Libraries, working with the Tamastslikt Cultural Institute of the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla, developed a Dublin Core compliant metadata structure. The metadata structure accommodates descriptive metadata from different cultural perspectives as well as technical and administrative metadata about multiple manifestations of images.
