The Pacific and Regional Archive for Digital Sources in Endangered

Cultures (PARADISEC) has been on the cutting edge of digital archiving,

building a significant historical collection and community of practice

engaged in the preservation and accessibility of research materials. Over

the ten years of PARADISEC's operation, the repository has grown to

represent over 860 languages from across the world, including cultural

materials from the Pacific region and South-East Asia, North America,

Africa and Europe. With over 5000 hours of audio, the extent of the

archival material, as well as the inclusion of a variety of styles such

as songs, narratives and elicitation, has resulted in an invaluable

resource for researchers and communities alike.

PARADISEC's innovation in archival practice allows communities to

access original recordings of their own cultural heritage, and provides

fieldworkers with a wealth of primary material. Research, Records and Responsibility

explores developments in collaborative archiving practice between

archives and the communities they serve and represent, incorporating

case studies of historical recordings, visual data and material culture.

It brings together the work of Australian and international scholars,

commemorating ten years of PARADISEC, and reflects on the development and future directions of

research and language archiving.
