With apologies for cross posting.

This past year The New York Public Library completed a year-long
Mellon-funded comprehensive assessment of its audio and moving image (AMI)
collections, which are among the largest and most important in the world.
As part of a growing resource commitment to address the AMI challenges
identified in that assessment (information may found at
www.nypl.org/preservation), NYPL has created a new position for Head of
Audio and Moving Image Preservation. The new Head will lead the
transformation of a well-established operation into an ever-increasing
high-production program designed to meet the strategic objectives of the
Library.

NYPL's robust and growing AMI preservation program consists of in-house
audio labs, in-house moving image labs, and an outsourcing component. The
unit’s preservation activities include: appraisal, format identification,
condition review, cleaning, treatment, re-housing, preservation
reformatting, documentation and quality control. The unit also participates
in other Library strategic initiatives that include areas such as
collection care, outreach, education, and exhibitions.
