ARChive of Contemporary Music
The ARChive of Contemporary Music (ARC) is a not-for-profit archive, music library and research center located in New York City since 1985. ARC contains more than three million sound recordings, in all known formats. ARC also houses support material including photographs, videos, DVDs, books, magazines, press kits, sheet music, ephemera and memorabilia. This collection is kept in a small converted NYC apartment with limited space. With all of this content, it can become a bit confusing on how to arrange it all. This publication is a tribute to how the ARC can begin to organize all of its chaos.
