Abstract
The central focus of this response paper is on how preservation programs can position themselves to prepare moving image archivists. Most institutions, aside from larger university-based or museum-based archives, have little interest in sustaining analog moving image or sound formats and are primarily focused on transferring that material to digital formats to provide access. Given this scenario, the author considers whether stand-alone moving image archives programs can survive, or if interdisciplinary preservation programs will be a better alternative.
