Zoom 373 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 What a waste. Hundreds of thousands of vinyl stacked so closely together there is now way they can all be kept in a stable enough stasis. There has got to be unchecked moisture and bacteria all over the place.

Community Admin AndrewJohn 10,453 Posted August 9, 2014 Community Admin Posted August 9, 2014 That's an incredible NYT story. Agree that this needs another level of preservation and curation. That warehouse nad the stacks on pallets/bins can't be good for old vinyl. Well, there's a new objective to strive for, I guess! World Record vinyl collection. It does seem odd (to me) that the Library of Congress wouldn't have been interested - that institution seems to be replaced by Google.
