UK project aims to save heritage collections
Hundreds of sound recordings from Manx National Heritage's archives are being digitised before they become degraded beyond repair.
It's part of the UK-wide 'Unlocking Our Sound Heritage' project, aimed at saving collections held on dated formats.
MNH has sent 600 recordings to Nothern Ireland for preservation - these include recordings of native Manx speakers, WW2 internees, and the last night of Bushy's Brew Pub in 1998.
Collections manager Jude Dicken explains the benefits of taking part:
DoI to change rent-setting model for public sector housing
Candidates could need to declare interests to stand in 2026 General Election
Customs and Excise office to relocate
Douglas man convicted in Island's 'most complex child abuse image investigation'
