A History of Archiving Television
This dissertation examines the challenges, conditions, and discourses regarding the preservation and access to television as historical and cultural material. Archival research at selected university archives and institutions noted for significant television collections along with interviews informs how television is understood to have cultural, historical, and economic value. The dissertation is partly historical in nature, but also contemporary in that issues of digitization and access are considered when asking how the Internet may act as an extension of archives.
Communication history, television studies, new media, political economy, and archival theory and practice.
