Wellcome Film
Overview
The Wellcome Library, in partnership with JISC Collections, aims to digitise and make available around 150 hours of historically significant moving image material.
This free-to-access archive of moving images will be selected from the historical medical film collections of the Wellcome Library. The online archive will consist of around 450+ titles that have been produced over the past 100 years, covering all aspects of medicine, health and social care provision and practice in the UK.
The digitised content will be made freely available through JISC's Film and Sound Online (FSOL) service, and the Wellcome Film page on
the Wellcome Library website.
In addition to digitising selected films, the project will also create rich catalogue records, thus enabling items within this archive to be discovered though the Library catalogue and other collaborative bibliographic resources such as WorldCat and COPAC.
