The films and interviews will be published on the Source website every week from the beginning of March.The films will range from stories of individual photographers, like the Jo Spence and the John Blakemore Archives, to specialist collections like that of London Zoo, which contains photographs of extinct animalsunavailable anywhere else and local collections like the local newspaper the Newtownards Chronicle. Also featuring will be the Archive of Modern Conflict, the Royal Anthropological Institute and archive conservator Susie Clark. For collections on a global scale we will be speaking to the British Library Endangered Archives project, Getty Images and Magnum Photos.
