Nelson & Gaunt 96-13674 The Borror Laboratory of Bioacoustics (BLB) is a unit within the Department of Zoology of The Ohio State University, and is located in the College of Biological Sciences' Museum of Biological Diversity. The BLB houses one of the largest collections of recorded animal sounds in the world, containing approximately 23,200 recordings of over 1000 species of animals. A current catalog is available for browsing by Internet. The BLB is also a center of active research by faculty, staff, and students on animal sounds. This project will copy the entire collection to digital compact disc (CD-R), and restore and duplicate (if necessary) analog tapes of animal sounds; these copies will then be stored in the University archive. Having the sounds in the new digital format will enable Internet transmission of the sounds, make possible the integration of audio and text data in a common file structure, and assist with rapid retrieval of requested sounds, as well as assuring permanence of the collection by enabling cloning of the data into newer digital formats as these become available. The OSU is partnering with the NSF in funding this project by purchasing a number of equipment items needed for the work being funded by this award.

纳尔逊和甘特96-13674博罗尔生物声学实验室是俄亥俄州立大学动物系的一个单位，位于生物科学学院生物多样性博物馆。BLB收藏了世界上最大的动物声音录音收藏之一，包含超过1000种动物的约23,200张录音。目前的目录可通过互联网进行浏览。BLB也是教职员工和学生对动物声音进行积极研究的中心。该项目将把整个收藏品复制到数字光盘(CD-R)上，并恢复和复制(如有必要)动物声音的模拟磁带；然后这些副本将存储在大学档案馆中。使声音采用新的数字格式将使声音能够在互联网上传输，使音频和文本数据有可能整合到一个共同的文件结构中，并协助快速检索所请求的声音，以及通过在新的数字格式可用时将数据克隆到新的数字格式来确保收藏的永久性。俄亥俄州立大学正在与国家科学基金会合作，通过购买由该奖项资助的工作所需的一些设备来资助这一项目。
