Preparing a tape for transcription.

Please include the following information on the tape label or cover sheet:

Name of narrator:

Name of project or organization:

Address of project or organization:

Contact person's name and phone number / email address:

Name of interviewer:

Date(s) of interview:

If there is more than one narrator or interviewer, is each person identified by name when the tape is running? If not, please list the speakers in the order they occur at the commencement of the tape, or by phrases each speaker says at the outset of the interview, so that the transcriber can identify speakers by name. (Use a separate sheet, if necessary.)

If you have already prepared tape logs, cover sheets, basic biographical information, or name authority lists, enclosing copies of these materials will be helpful.

If there is more than one tape, label each side in sequence (for example, "side 1 of 4").
