Our digitization programming consists of ongoing documentation in the format of digital video-audio. Recordings of syilx fluent elders speakers are organized in community cohorts to preserve the critically endangered nsyilxcen language, with their full prior informed consent. The content is archived in perpetuity and shared with syilx communities. Ongoing capacity building consists of cataloging, transcribing and translating the resources to be housed at OIERS En'owkin Centre. This archival work is to create access for syilx educational, cultural revitalization initiaves for the nsyilxcen langauge. Digital recordings are community specific and include special terminology and archival information for heritage and historical preservation. Our cultural organization acts as a repository for syilx communities to access far into the future. The collection of stories, narratives, oral knowledge and historical accounts will be transferred and catalogued for member's access and use in perpetuity.
