456 6. Toward Implementation The Library of Congress and the National Film Preservation Board are committed to implementing the action plan outlined here, but we need your input and support. Only by continuing the collaboration among the film community and building a wide base of public interest can there be hope for genuine gains in American film preservation. To this end, we invite written comments on the plan. It is worth restating that the recommendations in Redefining Film Preservation express agreements among the archivists, educators, filmmakers, industry executives, and others who participated in the five planning groups. To reach this point, groups achieved compromise on issues that individual representatives might have preferred to push harder or downplay. For some more controversial issues, this plan is the first attempt at open discussion and privatepublic sector consensus. It is hoped that written comments can build from this foundation, suggesting priorities, partners, and specific implementation approaches. The National Film Preservation Board, currently authorized by Congress through June 1996, will discuss implementation at its Fall 1994 meeting and guide the overall process. Recognizing that a national funding structure is the critical factor for the plan's success, the Library of Congress will take steps to introduce the legislation for a new federally chartered foundation dedicated to film preservation. The Librarian will issue an implementation document, incorporating public comments and the Board's discussion, by the end of January 1995. To contribute to the initial implementation discussions, please address written comments by October 3, 1994 to: Steven Leggett, Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. 20540-4800; FAX: 202-707-2371.
