Treasures From The KBOO Public Affairs Archives are audio gems

This program features Treasures from the KBOO Audio Archive, going back to 1968

Please help us preserve these audio gems!

KBOO's Public Affairs Archive Digitization Project

KBOO has an archive of over 7000 recordings of speeches, interviews and documentaries dating back to 1968, our first year on the air. Unfortunately, we rarely have time to broadcast them, even though many retain their value. Some that are on old-fashioned recording tape are deteriorating. We have received several grants to help with the digitization of these programs. This will save the sound that otherwise might be lost, and will also enable us to make these unique programs available to you via our website.
