SELECTION CRITERIA

The Interviews collection does not contain episodes of television shows, scripts, personal papers, or other ephemera, and we cannot accept donations of these items.

On a case-by-case basis, we may accept donations of oral history collections that focus on the television industry and which complement our in-house collection.

Selection criteria for accepting material may include condition, completeness, copyright status, historical significance, version, format and number of copies already held by the Foundation.
