This resource provides information on the preservation procedures used by me, Linda Barwick, in the care of my audio collections. I accept no responsibility for the use of these procedures by any other person. Because my own experience has been exclusively in the Macintosh environment I cannot comment on Windows-based systems for sound preservation, but the same general principles apply, and there are many other web resources that are PC-specific (see 'Useful links').
