July 16, 2010 -- In the latest Library of Congress Digital Preservation podcast, Linda Tadic offers practical solutions for archiving and preserving digital video.

Tadic is an adjunct professor in New York University's Moving Image Archiving and Preservation program  and executive director of Audiovisual Archive Network . In the podcast, she describes the lifespan and fragility of tape and DVD, how to move the essential video files from a camera or DVD onto a hard drive, which descriptions should accompany the video files and how to actively manage the files over time.

Previously, Tadic managed the Digital Library at Home Box Office. She was also Director of the Media Archives and Peabody Awards Collection  at the University of Georgia, Director of Operations for ARTstor  and past President of the Association of Moving Image Archivists .
