This project brought together libraries and archives involved in maintaining television news archives to consider the long term sustainability of their programs. The main activity of the grant was a two-day workshop held at Vanderbilt University to share knowledge about the challenges and potential avenues of collaboration for preserving television news. The workshop titled Sustaining Television News for the Next Generation took place on March 8-9, 2018 and included about thirty-five participants, representing university libraries, nonprofits, and digital cultural heritage groups.

The legal working group met to discuss legal environment of television news archives. The group established four main examples to which their responses were based: Vanderbilt Television News Archive, UCLA Library Broadcast NewsScape, American Archive of Public Broadcasting, and Internet Archive TV News Archive. The legal group conversation had three discussions, first the legal basis for providing access to news archives, next possible next steps for news archives that stay within legal limits, and finally the ramifications of past lawsuits to the future of news archives.
On March 8-9, 2018 Vanderbilt University hosted a group of library and archive professionals to discuss the current challenges of television news archives. The event was sponsored by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The group split into three working groups charged with specific issues. Each working group was given some questions to start the discussion, but they were also encouraged to raise other concerns or challenges they saw to their topic.

The sustainability working group met to discuss the role of television news archives in the academic, public, and private environments. The group discussed the current state of archival programs and they noted the differences between public and private archives and the different roles they play. The public archives have a different audience that is broader, which requires a more defined collection scope to ensure the collection is truly ‘the news.’ Comments were made about defining the audience and stakeholder populations to predict the needs or desires of the users.

The technical working group met to discuss the various aspects of capturing and preserving television news. The conversations circled mostly around methods of producing computational metadata and gaps. They also discussed ways to improve textual indexing of collections. This working group was the smallest of the three groups with 5 to 6 members, including participants mostly from university libraries. Four of the participants had active television news archives and two had finite audiovisual collections that related to the conversation.
