Join the National Library of Scotland at Kelvin Hall to look back at 50 years of Scotland's film archive

Wednesday 25th November, 6-7pm

Join founding archivist Janet McBain and current archive staff as they tell the story of Scotland’s film archive and the work involved in preserving and sharing its treasures through film clips and conversation.

The National Library of Scotland holds this archive, made up of thousands of films spanning over 130 years. Established in 1976 as the Scottish Film Archive, it endures as a phenomenal record of Scotland on film and video.
