List of sound recordings preserved in the U.S. Library of Congress
The National Recording Registry is a list of sound recordings that "are culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant, and inform or reflect life in the United States."[1] The registry was established by the National Recording Preservation Act of 2000,[2] which created the National Recording Preservation Board, whose members are appointed by the Librarian of Congress. The recordings preserved in the United States National Recording Registry form a registry of recordings selected yearly by the National Recording Preservation Board for preservation in the Library of Congress.[2]
The National Recording Preservation Act of 2000 established a national program to guard America's sound recording heritage. The Act created the National Recording Registry, The National Recording Preservation Board and a fund-raising foundation.[3] The purpose of the Registry is to maintain and preserve sound recordings and collections of sound recordings that are culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.[2] Beginning in 2002, the National Recording Preservation Board has selected recordings nominated each year to be preserved. On January 27, 2003, the first 50 recordings were announced by James Billington, the Librarian of Congress.[4]
The first four yearly lists each had 50 selections. Since 2006, 25 recordings have been selected annually. As of 2024[update], a total of 650 recordings have been preserved in the Registry. Each calendar year, public nominations are accepted for inclusion in that year's list of selections, which are announced the following spring.
Registry title works, original or copies, are housed at the Library of Congress' Packard Campus for Audio Video Conservation. Each yearly list typically includes a few recordings that have also been selected for inclusion in the holdings of the National Archives' audiovisual collection. Recordings on the National Recording Registry that are of a political nature tend to overlap with the audiovisual collection of the National Archives.
Recordings selected for the National Recording Registry are "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant", and inform or reflect culture in the United States.[5][1]
Recordings will not be considered for inclusion in the National Recording Registry if no copy of the recording exists.[5]
No recording is eligible for inclusion in the National Recording Registry until ten years after the recording's creation.[5]

^Library of Congress sources conflict regarding the Pat Bonner recording(s) in the registry. The original press release names "Schooner Bradley",[20] while the full registry list and an expanded essay name "Clifton's Crew".[21][22] A list of available audio clips for registry titles includes both "Schooner Bradley" and "Clifton's Crew".[23]
^Dates listed for the Pat Bonner selections include 1952–60,[24] June 1960,[21] and June 11, 1960,[25] although the essay for "Clifton's Crew" says "the only known recording" was made August 24, 1938.[26]
^The class of 2022 saw a shift with the current calendar year being cited as the "induction year", as opposed to the previous year. Consequently, 2021 was skipped over.[95]
