A place of living memory, the Phonotheque of the MMSH aims to bring together recordings of the sound heritage that have the value of ethnological, linguistic, historical, musicological or literary information on the Mediterranean area. It documents fields little covered by conventional sources, or completes them with the point of view of actors or witnesses. The collection holds more than 8000 hours of audio archives recorded since the late 1950s concerning all the humanities sciences.
The Phonogrammarchiv is a multi-disciplinary research sound and video archive, covering holdings from all continents. Since its foundation in 1899 the Phonogrammarchiv has been building up its holdings by cooperating with Austrian scholars and archiving their collected material, or by fieldwork conducted by staff members on special topics exploring new fields of methods and contents. The main tasks comprise the production, annotation, cataloguing and long-term preservation of audio-visual field recordings, making the cultural heritage available for future generations and enabling the dissemination of the recordings as well as technical developments in the field of AV recording and storage. Thus the Phonogrammarchiv adds to infrastructural performance valuable to both the scholarly community and the public at large.
