IMAP LAUNCHES WEB SITE TO ARCHIVE INDEPENDENT MEDIA
www.imappreserve.org
Do you have a historic media collection that's gathering dust? Independent
Media Arts Preservation (IMAP) has launched its new web site,
www.imappreserve.org to help independent producers and arts and cultural
organizations catalog their media works. Dedicated to the preservation of
independent electronic media, IMAP is concerned that the history of
non-commercial production is being lost, ranging from video art, audio art,
and technology-based installation art to independent documentary and
narratives, community media, and documentation of arts and culture.
The web site features an easy-to-use, standardized template for cataloging
video or film collections as part of IMAP's Cataloging Project. The
template is designed specifically for independent producers and non-profit
organizations who have little experience with cataloging, but is useful for
any archive with media holdings. In addition to the template, the web site
provides sample cataloging entries, template instructions and preservation
information. Users of the template may also access technical assistance via
email.
