It should be a great evening with Pacific &amp; archive-inspired performances, many of PARADISEC&#8217;s friends and supporters old and new joining us for a drink, to reminisce &amp; look to the future, and a delicious Pacific style feast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have been doing work on identifying which languages are represented in our collection, thanks to support from the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ldaca.edu.au\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.ldaca.edu.au\/\" target=\"_blank\">Language Data Commons of Australia<\/a>, who have also supported work on archival materials from the Sydney University Archives. They have also funded the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/pambu.anu.edu.au\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pacific Manuscripts Bureau <\/a>to digitise microfilms of language materials for access in our collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As ever, there are great new collections and deposits to be explored in our (now-revamped!) <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.paradisec.org.au\/\" target=\"_blank\">catalog<\/a> so please go and have a browse! &#8230;including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Documenting the endangered language of the Baduy of Western Java, who for centuries preserved their traditional beliefs, ways of life &amp; language in the face of great change all around them (Depositor Jill Beckman) https:\/\/catalog.paradisec.org.au\/collections\/BAC01<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New items in Owen Edwards&#8217; &#8220;wordlists of languages of Indonesia and the Philippines&#8221;.
