Published purpose
The Inuit Broadcasting Corporation (IBC) undertakes the annual cataloguing and digitization of as many analog tapes as possible, storing them on hard drives for viewing, describing and presenting on publicly accessible web platforms. Historically, this effort has processed between 400 and 1 000 tapes per year. Since the project’s inception in 2014, IBC has digitized approximately 2 000 tapes. For the 2021–2022 fiscal year, the project’s main goal is to catalogue, digitize, view in real time, describe and edit 500 U-Matic tapes. The uploading of digitized videos to publicly accessible web platforms will proceed as funding, staffing and web platform capacities allow.
