The Conservation Center for Art and Historic Artifacts (CCAHA)

October 27, 2009 to coincide with UNESCO's World Day for Audiovisual
Heritage.  Based on CCAHA's national professional development
program A Race Against Time: Preserving Our Audiovisual Media, this
video series will provide an ongoing web-based preservation resource
to those who are responsible for heritage audiovisual collections
but were unable to attend the live conferences.  The videos will be
available for free on CCAHA's website at
<URL:http://www.ccaha.org/education/videos>.

Preservation leaders George Blood, President, Safe Sound Archives,
Philadelphia, PA; Alan Lewis, Consultant in Audiovisual Archives,
Washington, DC; and Sarah Stauderman, Preservation Manager,
Smithsonian Institution Archives, Washington, DC; present timely and
thorough audiovisual media preservation information in the following
video segments:

    Audiovisual preservation basics
    Film Preservation
    Audio Preservation
    Video Preservation
    Contracting for Reformatting

The entire A Race Against Time: Preserving Our Audiovisual Media
video series will be a permanent online resource available at
<URL:http://www.ccaha.org/education/videos> after its October 27,
2009 debut.

These videos were made possible though funding from the Gladys
Krieble Delmas Foundation with additional support from the Institute
for Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and the Andrew W. Mellon
Foundation.  For additional information, contact CCAHA at
