Sargent, Ralph N.
In response to the growing importance of gathering and preserving films and television programs, this text focused on the technical problems faced by film archivists in storage and use of visual media collections. Section one presents a technical description of the physical characteristics of film, and includes discussions with film manufacturers and professional archivists. Section two discusses new techniques for film preservation with emphasis on specific ones used by different manufacturers. Section three focuses on the technical characteristics and handling requirements of videotape. (EMH)
