“Digitising our collection is not only an urgent mission to
preserve heritage, but also an opportunity for the BBC to create
access to and demonstrate the value of our precious content,
either through repeating older programs and documentaries,
but also external sales of clips to feed the daily requests by
journalists, film makers and other media professionals.”
