In the past thirty years, a growing community has emerged to advocate for the preservation and recognition of home movie collections based on their historical significance. Despite the significant cost of preserving and providing access to these collections and the myriad challenges they pose to archivists and researchers, no substantive research exists that evaluates their actual scholarly use or impact. Through a publication analysis and a survey of the Association of Moving Image Archivists, I sought to determine if there is a difference between whom archivists think should be using home movie collections and who is actually them. Though my findings suggest that home movies have yet to impact the scholarly work of historians, I offer recommendations for future research and professional development that may encourage increased scholarly use as well as increased collaboration between archivists and historians. / text

Mary Wingfield Scott (1895-1983) was a leading figure in the historic preservation movement in Richmond, Virginia. Scott demonstrated a preservation philosophy that transitioned from the sentimental, patriotic focus of early preservation efforts to a modern, academic approach that valued the built environment for its relationship to the city and its history. Scott educated persons on the value of preserving houses that were architecturally significant or connected to the city’s heritage. She documented the antebellum housing of Richmond in two books, founded the William Byrd Branch of the APVA, conducted walking tours throughout the city, wrote a newsletter for the William Byrd Branch, and purchased houses to prevent their demolition. Scott was a strong advocate of adaptive reuse, which she applied to the Greek Revival houses known as Linden Row. Scott’s approach to preservation is mirrored in the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) enacted in 1966 and Richmond’s 2009 Downtown Plan.

Manchmal habe ich Zweifel, ob ich als Wissenschaftler öffentliche Bibliotheken noch benötige. Denn die Bücher, die ich für meine Arbeiten brauche, habe ich daheim. Online-Lexika bieten Informationen kostenlos, bequem und schnell. Die Digitalisierung besorgt den Rest. Zeitschriften, von denen Bibliotheken häufig ohnehin nur einzelne Jahrgänge besitzen, sind im Internet komplett verfügbar, und selbst von gerade erst erschienenen Bücher liefern Google und Amazon inzwischen mehr als nur Inhaltsangaben. Kurz: Internet und Digitalisierung machen den „realen“ Besuch von Bibliotheken mehr und mehr überflüssig.
