This Research Collections project will address the difficult job of assisting and facilitating the salvage and preservation of a valuable Russian collection of natural sounds. These irreplaceable recordings currently exist on archaic and rapidly degrading media and reside in a physical facility that dose little to augment their state of preservation and availability for use by other scientists. The project is a first-class collaboration between the Library of Natural Sounds (LNS) at Cornell University and Russian Phonoteka of Animal Voices, (PAV). Original recordings will be transcribed to more modern media with duplicate recordings being made and housed at different sites. Through the LNS, availability to other user scientists will be greatly enhanced and the latest technologies for natural sound preservation will be employed. Collections such as these will continue to increase in both basic and applied value as reference materials for basic research in animal vocalization and communication, as sources for identifying species for environmental assessments, and as contributors to the increasing array of commercial products that utilize natural sounds in their production.

这个研究收藏项目将解决协助和促进抢救和保存一个有价值的俄罗斯自然声音收藏的困难工作。这些不可替代的记录目前存在于陈旧和迅速退化的媒体上，并存在于一个物理设施中，几乎没有增加其保存状态和可供其他科学家使用的可用性。该项目是康奈尔大学自然声音图书馆（LNS）和俄罗斯动物声音Phonoteka（PAV）之间的一流合作。原始录音将被转录到更现代的媒体上，并在不同的地点制作和保存复制录音。通过LNS，将大大提高其他用户科学家的可用性，并将采用最新的自然声音保护技术。这类收藏品作为动物发声和交流基础研究的参考材料、作为环境评估所需物种的鉴定来源以及作为利用自然声音生产的越来越多的商业产品的贡献者，其基本价值和应用价值将继续增加。
