Donate Cylinders to the ArchiveYou can help UCSB's online archive of cylinder recordings grow by donating cylinder recordings to the UCSB Library for digitization and long-term preservation. Cylinders that the library doesn't already own (provided that they are in good, playable condition) will be digitized and added to the collection for others to enjoy. You, your family and friends will be able to listen to the online recordings anytime, with the knowledge that these recordings will be preserved for posterity at the UCSB Libraries and that they will contribute to a growing collection of audio that is freely accessible to scholars and the public. Your name will also be permanently associated with the cylinders that you donate. All types of cylinders are welcome, from brown wax cylinders to Blue Amberols or even home or field recordings. Whether they are rare or not so rare, you can ensure that they are preserved in the proper environment for future generations and that they will be accessible to the public. We regret that we cannot digitize recordings unless they are donated to the Library. The project would like to thank the following organizations and individuals who donated cylinders to the project for digitization:
For further information on donating to the archive, please contact the archivist: David Seubert, Curator Direct questions or comments about the project or this page to the project staff or visit the help pages. This is an official University of California, Santa Barbara Library web page.
