VHS Preservation Project Announces Founding Members
The Academic Libraries Video Trust (ALVT), a project of the National Media Market (NMM), this week announced that American University, Duke University, the University of California at Berkeley, the University of Delaware, Hofstra University, and the University of North Texas have joined the organization as Founding Benefactors. Each institution will provide $10,000 in initial funding via a one-time membership fee. The project, now live at videotrust.org, will facilitate the preservation of commercial video content available exclusively on VHS or other obsolete, deteriorating formats.
