NY Times article (http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/31/arts/music/the-alan-lomax-collection-from-the-american-folklife-center.html?pagewanted=1&_r=2&hp) provides details on how the Lomax archives starting from the mid-30s will be accessible online.

This is the man who first recorded Woody Guthrie and Muddy Waters plus countless others, and his archive recordings depict what folk music was then, before it became "folk music"
