Judaica Sound Archives

Great Jewish music can be found here!
Despite these difficult economic times the JSA continues to fulfill its
mission of collecting, protecting and preserving Judaica sound recordings
from the past and present. The website
www.fau.edu/jsa now has 31 featured performers, 5 complete collections by
record label, and 8 special collections.



Yet this is only the tip of the iceberg of the treasures in the Judaica
Sound Archives. Over 90% of the JSA holdings will never be on the public
website due to copyright restrictions. This issue of the Sounding Board also
has an article about the Judaica Sound Archives Research Station
(JSA-RS) which was
developed so that library researchers, teachers and Cantorial students, can
be provided with digital access to a growing percentage of the entire JSA
collection. You can find out more about this exciting and innovative project
on our website.
