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.

Our largest such collection consists of more than 5,000 hours of historical newsreel footage dating from the 1910s through the early 1970s, much of which has never before been seen publicly.

Now, the Archive at UCLA is in a better position than many. We are partially funded by the University of California, and our track record in attracting outside support is probably above average. Despite this success, we cannot properly store all of our materials: we cannot provide students, educators and the public with as much access to our collections as we should; and we cannot hope to preserve all of our films, most of our films, or even a substantial portion of our films - not without help. And UCLA is not alone. The same can be said, to greater or lesser degrees, of most other archives and film preserving institutions throughout the country. Other major
