How our media archive works

We take care of your content, so you don’t have to.

Every asset that enters our system is barcoded, catalogued and location tracked, so it can be found quickly and easily. The physical assets are stored in our purpose-built vault. Our vault is designed to provide ideal conditions for tape and film longevity, with humidity control and temperature regulation.

Go online any time to search your catalogue and order delivery. If you need assistance, our experienced librarians are available to help.

ANNE DEJEANSupervisor, SBS News & Current Affairs Library

AGL had historical media content stored on a variety of film and tape formats and, through a strategically staged approach, Preferred Media were able to convert these formats to a usable digital catalogue. Preferred Media provided an efficient yet personal service which has enabled us to preserve the legacy of AGL and in particular, our flame girls!
