The Indiana University Bloomington Media Preservation Initiative announces the launch of a new blog at http://mediapreservation.wordpress.com/
The media preservation blog is designed for those who have read the Indiana reports--Meeting the Challenge of Media Preservation and the Media Preservation Survey--and want to follow our progress as we continue to develop and implement strategies and solutions for our campus. It may be of interest to universities and other organizations with archival audio, video, or film holdings.

Just a friendly reminder that October 27, 2011 is UNESCO's 5th Annual World Day for Audiovisual Heritage! This years theme is "Audiovisual Heritage: See, Hear and Learn". If you are planning an event - even minor - please send the information and links (if relevant) to me at editor@iasa-web.org. All events received before October 17, 2011 shall be listed on the IASA website.
Feel free to send me an update and/or pictures of your event anytime after October 27th.
Home Movie Day was started in 2002 by a group of film archivists concerned about what would happen to all the home movies shot on film during the 20th century. They knew many people have boxes full of family memories that they've never seen for lack of a projector, or out of fear that the films were too fragile to be viewed. They also knew that many people were having their amateur films transferred to videotape or DVD, with the mistaken idea that their new digital copies would last forever and the "obsolete" films could be discarded.
