- W2120626031 abstract "The Digital Archiving of Endangered Language Oral Traditions:Kaipuleohone at the University of Hawai‘i and C’ek’aedi Hwnax in Alaska Andrea L. Berez (bio) Introduction In this essay I compare and contrast two small-scale language archives and discuss their relevance for oral tradition research.1 The first of these is Kaipuleohone, the University of Hawai‘i Digital Ethnographic Archive (KUHDEA).2 KUHDEA is administered by the Department of Linguistics at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa (UHM) and curated by the UHM library in an institutional DSpace repository under the purview of the UHM library. The second archive presented here is called C’ek’aedi Hwnax3 (C’H), which serves the Ahtna Alaska Native community in and around the Copper River region of south central Alaska. C’H is fully administered by the Ahtna community itself via a non-profit organization known as the Ahtna Heritage Foundation (AHF). These two archives have a number of features in common. They could both be called “niche” archives, in that they are both rather small in size, have a well-defined collection scope, and focus on recordings of languages—especially endangered languages—as used within many different genres. Additionally, they are both primarily digital archives, providing for the digitization of older analog materials while also accepting new, born-digital audio and video. They both strive to follow current best-practice recommendations for digital audio formats, storage, and metadata collection. They are both participating members of the Open Language Archives Community (OLAC)4 and they both share metadata publicly via the OLAC search engine.5 Finally, they were both conceived out of the growing interest over the last two decades in endangered language documentation and preservation, on the one hand,6 and the increased use of digital infrastructure to serve the needs of social science and the humanities, including linguistics, on the other.7 KUHDEA and C’H are also quite different in a number of ways. C’H has a physical facility that is meant to be a gathering place where the Ahtna community can meet to share cultural activities and knowledge; the digital archive is just one part of the larger function of C’H and the AHF. KUHDEA, on the other hand, exists primarily as a virtual entity, with users accessing recordings and interacting with the director online, often from overseas locations. The intended audience for the two archives is different as well: KUHDEA primarily serves an academic audience, while the main audience for C’H is the Ahtna community, though both archives are welcoming to users from academia, the speaker community, and the general public. In addition, the two archives differ in their policies for allowing access to materials: while both archives allow the depositor to stipulate how freely available materials are, KUHDEA allows fairly liberal access online to open materials, while C’H users are intended to visit the physical facility to listen to recordings, and copies are distributed on a much more restricted basis. History and Purpose KUHDEA was founded in 2008 as a response to two needs: first, the growing interest in new technologies to assist humanities researchers in discovering and accessing extant research, and second, a need to provide long-term care for language documentation materials collected by researchers at UHM.8 The first depositors to KUHDEA were long-time UHM linguistics professors and field linguists with a history of fieldwork in the Pacific, including Robert Blust,9 Derek Bickerton,10 and Al Schütz.11 The Department of Linguistics has a five-decade reputation for field-based language work in the Pacific and Asia, and over the last half-century UHM scholars had throughout their careers collected analog recordings on reel-to-reel and cassette. Prior to the digital revolution there was no inexpensive, local, and readily available facility for digitizing and storing the raw data upon which decades of published language descriptions and linguistic analyses had been based. Thus the founding director, Nick Thieberger, prioritized the digitization of these deteriorating materials and purchased for the archive a suite of digitization equipment including an analog-to-digital converter, a dual cassette deck, a turntable, DAT and minidisk players, a..." @default.
