The Norfolk Record Office launched the Norfolk Sound Archive in April 2003. Its purpose is to collect, preserve and provide public access to sound recordings relevant to life in Norfolk. The Norfolk Sound Archive is part of the Norfolk Record Office, a joint service of Norfolk County Council and District Councils in Norfolk. The aims of the Sound Archive are given below.
