Admin history	Created by Philip Boobbyer in the process of his research in 1996/97. Interviews were conducted in Moscow and Paris. Philip contacted Special Collections and Archives in 2022 to request digitisation of the tapes and to offer digital copies for the University of Kent archive. This was in light of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Additional tapes were digitised in late 2022 and early 2023 as part of Dr Boobbyer's research project on 'Interviews on conscience and Soviet dissent' with the charitable trust Anglo-Nordic Productions Trust.. Digital audio files will be made publically available by Philip using Soundcloud (link to be added to this record when live).
