AMERICAN WOMEN MAKING HISTORY & CULTURE (1963-1982): PACIFICA RADIO'S BROADCAST HISTORY OF THE WOMEN'S MOVEMENT IN AMERICA
Presented by Jolene Beiser and Holly Rose McGee

The Pacifica Radio Archives is in the second year of an NHPRC-funded digital preservation project titled American Women Making History & Culture: 1963-1982. The $128,000 matching grant (Pacifica is also providing $128,000) is the largest grant the NHPRC has awarded for public radio preservation, and is also one of the few NHPRC grant projects preserving audio recordings from the women’s movement. In this project, Pacifica is digitizing 1,700 recordings from its five stations: KPFA-Berkeley, KPFK-Los Angeles, KPFT-Houston, WBAI-New York, and WPFW-Washington, D.C., broadcasted between the years 1963 and 1982, having to do with the women’s movement, women’s rights, women’s experiences, and interviews with and by women artists, musicians, politicians, writers, activists, and more. New and edited catalog records will be created instituting the PBCore content standard, a finding aid will be created and made available on the Online Archive of California, and the recordings will be available streaming through the U.C. Berkeley online catalog and the Internet Archive. Pacifica archivists Jolene Beiser and Holly Rose McGee will be discussing their experiences applying for this grant, creating a methodology for the project, and cataloging, digitizing, and making this unique collection available Bryanonline.
