| Subseries A: Sound discs | |||||||||||||
| Numbering for discs begins with SR0001. See Appendix A for a partial list of items. The sound discs were received at AFC in approximate numerical order (when there was a YIVO number). The processor organized the discs by program (if there were three or more items per program), by purpose (discs with the Kole Recording label were compiled from various recordings for convenient playback on the radio), by the type of program (a designation received from the donor; used here when a program title was not known), and the remaining discs were grouped together in alphabetical order. | |||||||||||||
| The YIVO number indicates a disc that was formerly in the custody of YIVO (Yiddish Institute of Yiddish Research), during the time when Henry Sapoznik was employed there, and had donated the discs to the Institute. When he left his position there, he was allowed to take the discs with him. The so-called "catalog number" reflects Sapoznik's work to continue cataloging the discs, using YIVO's numbering system. The "ID number on the sleeve" was the number written on the disc sleeve in which the discs were received at AFC. The number sometimes matches the YIVO number, sometimes the catalog number, and sometimes is different from both. | |||||||||||||
| Content on the discs is sometimes listed as separated by numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3, etc.). This reflects the information on disc labels or from the donor's original inventory. For the Kole Recording subseries numbers indicate cuts. For other discs the numbers may indicate either cuts or multiple selections within a longer cut. | |||||||||||||
