In October, 1914, a “Library of Films” was opened in Berlin. This
Berlin depository already possesses a very large collection of valuable
films, dealing especially with scientific and allied subjects, which
is probably unequalled elsewhere. In connection with the library an
Intelligence Bureau has been opened, where advice can be obtained on
all matters connected with the cinematograph and its uses.
Its resources are inexhaustible and the films may be borrowed for
purposes of instruction by Educational Authorities and other allied
bodies. It is established for the national preservation of historical
and other films, and will become invaluable as the years roll on, from
the historic point of view.
