We’ve posted a big directory of old Atomic Energy Commission videos. To make it, we read through old listings of video summaries, cross-referenced them with the National Archives to get links to 16mm film if they exist, and also cross-referenced against YouTube and other places where one can find such videos already. The net result is a listing of existing videos as well as a listing of not-yet-digitized-but-available-on-film videos, in prioritized order of how awesome they are.
