We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
The Educational Film Gui^e, published annually, indexes and describes 16mm films.
This 1959 Annual Supplement, which contains 1,642 films, is to be used with the 1954-1958 volume. Each film is described on the basis of information obtained directly from the main source. Listing of a film does not in any sense constitute a recommendation.
This list is divided into three parts as follows:
Part 1. Title List. Each film, fully described, is arranged alphabetically by title.
Part 2. Subfect Index. Each film is indexed under the subject or subjects covering it The subjects used are based upon Sears List of Subject Headings. Crossreferences to more specific subjects or related subjects are provided where needed.
Part 3. Directory of Main Sources. The abbreviations used for the main sources in the alphabetical Title List are given with full names and addresses.
A sample entry in the Title List is analyzed below:
