In preparation for the 2021 global IASA conference, I would like to let you know that the 2020 Joint IASA - FIAT/IFTA conference proceedings are available here. We hope this serves to bolster the excitement to connect at this year’s virtual conference. IASA is committed to providing resources that directly support our collective mission of preserving and using our collective audiovisual cultural heritage.
