Interested in donating or loaning materials to the Black Gospel Music Restoration Project? Read below for details on how you can participate in this unique project.
Digital-file format option for donated and loaned material:
The collection's discs are digitized and a high-resolution audio file is created. For rare, damaged or fragile materials we may provide a preservation audio file for preservation purposes. This will be handled on a case-by-case basis by our audio engineer.
Procedure for loaning material to The Black Gospel Music Restoration Project:
- Our staff ships the appropriate number of containers to the collector in a shipping box.
- The collector and appropriate staff agree upon the value of the current shipment so the materials can be appropriately insured.
- The collector receives the shipping box and packs the albums in the supplied containers using the included instructions.
- Our shipping address is included on the shipping box, and may also be provided by FedEx Kinko's:
Black Gospel Music Restoration Project
ATTN: Denyse Rodgers
Baylor University Libraries
1312 S 3rd Street
Waco, TX 76706
- The collector MUST read and sign the Loan Conditions Form or the Donation Form, and include the appropriate form in the shipment, and seal the shipping box.
- The collector delivers the package to a FedEx Kinko's location and provides our account number. The materials are weighed, shipped and we are billed.
