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.

PREFACE This is the first annual Supplement to the second edition of the Educational Film Catalog. It is a cumulated number containing all of the material of the January, April and July 1940 quarterly Supplements and some new material. For a complete up-to-date file you now need only the second edition, published in 1939, and this volume. All others may be discarded. Necessary corrections in prices, etc. have been made and films with- drawn from circulation by producers have been withdrawn from this catalog also. Although most of the films here listed have been viewed in our projection room, continuing with our practice of viewing all films which we began for the July Supplement, only a few of the notes used in the January and April Supplements have been changed because of the expense of making such changes. If the note used seemed inaccurate or inadequate, however, it was changed or augmented. Eighty-six books on films, photography, sound recording and related subjects are listed in the Book review section, page vii. The compilers and the H. W. Wilson Company again thank the col- laborators who have helped with advice and film reviewing. A list of those who checked the lists and helped in many ways is given on the following page. Thanks are also due to the producers and distributors who have been most cooperative in sending their films to us for our reviewing purposes and in keeping us well informed of their film activities. The clerical work has been capably done by Romaine Schneeloch and Ellen M. Mullen. October, 1940 Eva Rahbek-Smith Dorothy E. Cook
