University receives grant to preserve sounds of Wisconsin heritage

The UW-Madison Center for the Study of Upper Midwestern Cultures and the Mills Music Library received a $230,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, according to a university press release, which will be used to digitize a historic collection of music and sound recordings. The recordings provide an auditory history of Wisconsin and the Upper Midwest, and the cultural traditions captured on them are currently only available on discs and cassettes that are deteriorating or obsolete, according to the release. Jeanette Casey, head of the Mills Music Library, said she is grateful that the grant will provide greater access to the recordings. “We’re thrilled the NEH recognized the importance of this fabulous and historic collection,” Casey said in the release.
