Haw and Where to Obtain U. S. Government Films 16mm Film Libraries 32 BORROW or rent the films coded 32 from the 16mm film libraries listed below. Individually none of these libraries has all of the films of the U. S. Government but they do have a sizable number of such films which they lend or rent within the United States. Some of these libraries are official depositories of the films of individual agencies such as the Department of Agriculture and the Bureau of Mines. Others have purchased prints of various Government films which they lend or rent. Both depository and nondepository libraries are included in the following list; they have not been differentiated. This is not an exhaustive list of 16mm film libraries handling U. S. Govern- ment films. Instead it is a selective list of those libraries (a) which reported having a number of such films, (b) which assented to their listing in this catalog, and (c) which agreed to cooperate with the United States Govern- ment in furthering the distribution of Government films. For the convenience of users, these 16mm film libraries have been listed alphabetically by States and cities. The resources and services of each library have been described briefly in terms of the number and kind of current U. S. Government films (titles) in the library. In these annotations, because of space limitations, the names of agencies have been abbreviated into their alphabetical symbols, e.g., USD A for U. S. Department of Agri- culture or USN for U. S. Navy. Following this descriptive summary there is a succinct statement of the restrictions, if any, placed by a library upon its distribution of films. Catalog users should note and observe these restric- tions which are, in many cases, set by law. Because of their variability, local loan conditions and rental rates have not been specified. Film users can and should obtain such information from individual libraries. Alabama Stevens Pictures, Inc.
