The Baker Lake tape collection consists of over 1,000 video tapes in U-matic format, in varying stages of decay. The tapes encompass Inuit cultural, historical, sociological and political development from the late 1970s to 1993. They describe and demonstrate (in Inuktitut) Inuit traditional hunting and fishing skills, shelter, clothing, transportation, food preparation, celebrations, and societal development. Participants include cherished Elders who have since passed on. Tapes include early political discussions leading to the creation of Nunavut. As Baker Lake is the only inland Inuit community in the world, this collection is unique. The Inuit Broadcasting Corporation will catalogue, digitize and describe each tape for public access.
