Given that the research and data gathering process occurs more quickly than the production of each volume, both processes are separate in time. That has meant that nearly all the major sections of the Etniker questionnaire have been practically completed so that all those materials are pending preparation. Apart from the explanations above, there is another of greater importance that justifies advancing the field research: as great importance is given to the knowledge of the elderly people surveyed, any delay could mean a significant loss of information.
Once work begins on a volume of the Atlas, those materials are first classified and organised. The whole bibliography related to the volume being prepared is in turn compiled. The publications prior to the research campaign and which follow a similar methodology play a key role as the ethnographic compilation under the aegis of Barandiaran dating back to the start of the 20 20th century with the publication of the Anuario de Eusko Folklore in 1921 has to be taken into account.
The drafting process is laborious given the extent of each volume and the great number of memories handled. A selection of the graphic material, both provided by the interviewers and from the bibliography, was prepared for the volume to be published.
