This resource was established at the University of Kent in 2013 to celebrate, preserve, and provide access to the archives and records of British stand-up comedy and comedians. The information on the University of Kent Special Collections page gives details of the available material, which includes stills, posters, production documents and audiovisual content, in the form of off-air recordings and video recordings of live events. A full catalogue will be made available online in 2016 but until then interested researchers can email the Special Collections team (specialcollections@kent.ac.uk) regarding the collections, which can be viewed in the Special Collections & Archives Reading Room in the Templeman Library. The digitisation is ongoing but some audiovisual content is already available on Soundcloud, including material from Attila the Stockbroker, Linda Smith, Mark Thomas and Richard Herring. The project’s excellent and informative blog provides regular updates about new acquisitions as well as interesting thoughts and advice on audiovisual digitisation on a budget in terms of equipment, funding and workflow.

The extensive record collection of Radio 1 DJ John Peel forms the bedrock of this resource. Users can browse along the virtual shelves to view Peel’s LP collection, which is currently in the process of being catalogued. A separate section features the DJ’s singles collection - currently a small selection of ‘B’ is complete, along with links to the music where available. The vastness of the collection means that this is very much a work in progress at the moment. The site also features links to videos featuring interviews with a number of Peel’s favourite bands and musicians. In 2014, in conjunction with The Space, the John Peel Archive relaunched its Record Box Project, in which key figures involved in music select tracks from the Peel collection and present them as a curated collection exploring the cultural context of the music, along with their own memories and experiences.
