Appraisal

In December 2020 the following were identified as candidates for deaccessioning and were removed from the collection: off-air recording of PBS' Independent Lens, a video introduction for a Chilean drama school, duplicates of Sunrise Semester recordings from Landy's class (not off-air recordings, the original footage), raw footage of healing ceremony in Korea, and video outtakes of play practice and scenes around a theatre. These were removed from the collection because they were materials to which the University Archives could not provide access to, of little or no research value, not related to the collection, or were duplicative material.

Processing Information

Paper materials related to each other intellectually were brought together physically, with oversized paper materials, audiovisual material, and physical digital media housed together as appropriate. Where necessary, separation sheets were created to sustain the intellectual relationship between materials of different formats that were initially housed together. Paper material was housed in archival folders and boxes. Physical digital media and audiovisual material were housed in archival boxes.

One hard drive and optical media containing data files were forensically imaged and arranged on local storage. Audio CDs were ripped to the WAV file format and arranged on local storage. Directories were created for material arranged together intellectually in the collection.

New York University Libraries follows professional standards and best practices when imaging, ingesting, and processing born-digital material in order to maintain the integrity of the content.

In September 2019, the audiovisual materials were transferred to audiovisual archivist for preparation for digitization.

In November 2020, digitized video recordings were arranged on local storage and directories were created for material arranged together intellectually in the collection.

In January 2021, materials identified for deaccessioning were removed from the collection.
