Dear Colleagues, Marsha Cassidy and I are pleased to announce the debut of the SCSTV ONLINE RESEARCH GUIDE. The GUIDE is an online annotated bibliography designed for television and media scholars. Its purpose is to assemble from members' submissions a list of archives, collections, websites, reference books, commercial resources, and other materials that support the scholarly study of television. The GUIDE does not exclude references to radio and film, of course, as media resources often overlap. Because this website is a compilation of shared contributions, your input is essential. Right now the GUIDE lists those resources presented by members of the Working Group on Historic Preservation at the 2001 SCS Washington conference. We hope that you will take time to look at these listings and then add your own submission(s) to the bibliography. With your help, we have the opportunity to build a rich collection of annotated references. We invite your insights about each resource and practical tips for use. So please click on the site below to access this new GUIDE. From there you will see the simple form for you to fill out for each resource you wish to add. You may also use this form to contribute comments about a resource already listed. THE SCSTV ONLINE RESEARCH GUIDE http://www.cinemastudies.org/scstv/research/ We look forward to your response to the GUIDE and welcome your comments and suggestions.
