Funding will facilitate: 1. Further digitization of additional material (Some of the material in the current Iowa Archives was excerpted and not fully digitized. In addition, there are historical speeches, stories and readings recorded by WSUI, a station in the IPR network, that are a rich historical audio opportunity.) 2. Refresh of the Iowa Archives web page and improve upon the collection by finding ways to further organize and annotate the archives by themes and topics, making them even more accessible. 3. Creation of a series of podcast episodes, adding new interviews, audio, and context to Iowa Archives, offering episodes to audiences searching for on demand content.
