News

The “News” section is a short term information tool that completes the Journal of Film Preservation, and that circulates the information as soon as it becomes available and is processed by the Editors of the website at the FIAF Secretariat. It is subdivided into a FIAF News sub-section (news from Affiliates and from the Secretariat), and Other News sub-section (news from the non-FIAF sister organisations, moving images industry and commerce, as well as from other information considered as useful to the Affiliates by the Editors) and an News Archives sub-section (that includes the articles that after a suitable time pass from the main two sections to this News Archive).

All relevant information may be submitted to the Editors of the website by E-mail. The text should not exceed 120 words and should be illustrated by one or two photographs. The Editors are entitled to change the submitted texts.
