Abstract

In addition to a theoretical review of the role of museums and other institutions, as well as media in recording, preservation and promotion of oral traditional culture, the paper provides a detailed description of projects “e-Scrapbook: Popularisation and Preservation of Traditional Culture of Bistra” and “e-Scrapbook 2: Field Research, Preservation and Popularisation of Traditional Culture of Bistra” of the Ecomuseum Bistra Association and similarities and differences between them. In twenty-seven videos produced within the projects, narrations, various oral literary forms and speech of older narrators were recorded, which resulted in a permanent record of the local dialect of Bistra, providing the basis for further research. Testimonies of the narrators show the continuity of oral tradition. The educational information contained in the videos provides resources for researchers, teachers and educators, allowing them to use these videos in learning about oral literature and media literacy, among other things. Through these projects, the Association has made a lasting contribution to the recording, research and popularisation of oral literature of Bistra in the 21st century and to strengthening the visibility of the organisation.
