Digital Possibilities Webinar Series: Strategies for the Digitization of Municipal Archives: The Chicago City Council Audio Recordings, 1970-2012

In 2024 Chicago's Office of the City Clerk was awarded a Recordings at Risk grant by the Council on Library and Information Resources to digitize a collection of City Council meeting audio recordings that span 40 years of Chicago political history. In this webinar, Matt Messbarger will explain the specific challenges faced and strategies developed to plan and complete this large-scale project with a focus on access and preservation of a unique record of Chicago history.
