- Conditions Governing Use
Original audiovisual materials are restricted for preservation reasons. A digital access copy of the Hindenburg film is available for use.
- Physical Characteristics and Technical Requirements
For preservation reasons, original analog and digital media may not be read or played back in the reading room. Users may visually inspect physical media but may not remove it from its enclosure.
