For the Haida, as we've gone out on our repatriation journeys to museums all over the world, it became more our responsibility to ask for the intangible heritage. They often thought we were only there for our ancestors. As we got a little bit more experience, we learned that it was up to us to ask, because museums were not necessarily forthcoming in saying that they also had Haida recordings and historic Haida photos. I think it was a bit of a challenge.
As you might know, museums are struggling to keep up with technology, so digitizing.... In my department alone, we have 3,000 recordings. Many of them are linguistic, reel-to-reel, so we have added about four new team members to digitize the intellectual property in the last year. It's a big job for museums.
