!!!Phonothek, Österreichische
Phonothek, Oesterreichische (Austrian Phonotheque), collection of
audiovisual sources of contemporary Austrian history (sound documents
and videos) founded in 1960 within the scope of the (see) Federal
Museums. In 1998 its holdings comprised 70.000 shellac and 15.000
long-playing records and 20.000 CDs (all of them music and/or speech
recordings), as well as unpublished documents (partly from collections
and decedents' estates) of cultural events and everyday events of
historical interest. The material collected is kept in long-term
archives, catalogued and made accessible to the public in the same way
as in academic libraries.
