Von wegen Hollywood Librarian: 20th Century Fox schließt seine Forschungsbibliothek

The material will be taken care of in a first-class manner. As to the nostalgia that people feel for the days when studios were in many such non-movie specific businesses, we share it, too, and wish the world were still that way, but it’s a muddling of points to lump this change into laments about lost film history, as it’s not what it is.

Die Welt in Hollywood ist nicht mehr, was sie einmal war und 20th Century Fox kramt das Argument der sich wandelnden Zeiten hervor, um die Schließung seiner Spezialbibliothek zur Filmgeschichte zu rechtfertigen. Und fügt dann das des nicht tragbaren Kosten-Nutzen-Verhältnisses gleich mit hinzu:

However, 20th is claiming that the library is not used enough to justify its cost, and its “contents should be transferred to a more public resource so these materials are available to the entire film community rather than just confined to those on the Fox lot”.
