The Library of Congress’s American Folklife Center (AFC) announces the release of its online card catalog.. This tool will enhance access to the most heavily used recordings in the American Folklife Center*s collections — field recordings made primarily in the 1930s and 40s. It contains fully searchable bibliographic data representing approximately 34,000 ethnographic sound recordings in the AFC Archive. It provides the public with access to the thousands of individual songs, tunes, folk tales, sermons, monologues, and life stories in the Archive’s collections.
