Filmstrips: A Practical Guide
We are delighted to share our practical guide for the preservation of filmstrips. This guide is shaped by discussions held during our international workshop with archivists in November 2025, and further aided by feedback from other European and non-European archives. The guide not only seeks to enhance archival knowledge of filmstrip collections but also aims to offer a template to preserve and make valuable other obsolete and overlooked media forms. We are also sharing the proceedings or report from the workshop as a further resource here.
We could note have constructed the guide were it not for the collaborative efforts of all the archivists who contributed.
