In the wake of recent demands for research serving society, old archived folklore records have been challenged as worthless except as material for a bonfire because most records lack enough contextual information for a folklorist to be able to say anything about the situation in which a narrative was performed. What can a folklorist do with such texts? This article offers several suggestions for how to use archived folklore records for different purposes, from research to tourism. Certainly, comparison is one relevant research method, but it is also possible to conduct historical and intertextual studies. The records also help to create biographical investigations of narrators and collectors
