Historical or Biographical Sketch: The library at Central Washington University acquired and collected audio tapes and cassettes as educational materials as early as the 1950s. The vast majority of these recordings were mass produced tapes produced by private firms and state and federal agencies. However, the library also collected audio recordings of significant addresses, lectures and interviews deemed historic to the college and region.

Scope and Content Note: The audio tape collection consists of 121 speeches, presentations, panel discussions, forums, lectures and other significant events recorded on 7 inch audio tapes and cassettes, which were retained by the university library at Central Washington University for historic preservation from 1951 to 1989. The collection also contains commencement addresses, building dedications and presentations on the history of the college and region. Included in the tapes are lectures by Timothy Leary when he visited the campus in 1967, the resignation speech of James E. Brooks in 1976, and the Pacific Rim Conference held on campus in 1989.
