Purpose
The Louis Riel Institute (LRI) has collected valuable audio recordings spanning two decades; the 1980s-1990s. This project focuses on a collection of audio interviews that document the history, culture and languages of the Métis through the voices of Knowledge Keepers and Elders. The interviews feature Métis authors, activists, leaders and discuss topics including but not limited to Métis identity, language preservation, community histories and cultural traditions. The main goals of this project are to digitize to preserve the audio-cassette collection, transcribe audio recordings research the collection provenance and make collection accessible through LRI's content management system.
