Yesterday I got an announcement for the National Screening Room, a new
collection
at the Library of Congress.
Here's the description:
image collection, designed to make otherwise unavailable movies, both
copyrighted and in the public domain, freely accessible to the viewers
worldwide.
The majority of movies in the National Screening Room are freely available as
both 5 mb MP4 and ProRes 422 MOV downloads.
The National Screening Room is a project of the Library of Congress National
Audio-Visual Conservation Center. The goal of this digital collection is to
present to the widest audience possible movies from the Library's extensive
holdings, offering a broad range of historical and cultural documents as a
contribution to education and lifelong learning.
These selections are presented as part of the record of the past. They are
historical documents which reflect the attitudes, perspectives, and beliefs of
different times. The Library of Congress does not endorse the views expressed in
these movies, which may contain content offensive to users.
