The black and white prints of RFE/RL were donated to OSA by the Hoover Institute, California in year 2015. The images are duplicates of those held at Hoover. The originals, and most probably the negatives are with the donor as well. OSA only received the paper prints with captions, and digitized the entire collection in year 2018.
Two women work in the Tape Library. One of them is standing by the shelves and holds and open audio tape box in her hands. The other is sitting at a desk working on a typewriter. They wear casual office clothes. In the middle of the photo there are tables pushed together with several audio tape boxes,sheets of paper, note leaves on a nail and an ashtray on them. In the background there is cupboard with tape boxes in it, a desk, and half of a blackboard on the wall.
