National Film and Television Archive completes five-year, £12m cataloguing project.

Charles Davis points out
an interesting article from the Independent. The British Film Institute has just completed a five-year, £12m project to catalog and conserve its extensive collection. From the article:



“They have uncovered a valuable and
quirky treasure trove of film, including unseen footage of Charlie Chaplin films, public information newsreels and a pilot of a David Jason
comedy.
All will be available in the 1,500 libraries, schools and colleges which have signed up to screenonline, the BFI’s internet library, or from the
BFI library itself to students for a small fee. Many will be featured in future seasons of film and television at the BFI’s film centre, the National
Film Theatre, in London.”
