The collection also contains contextual materials like costumes, scripts, props, artefacts, photographs, and promotional materials. Public programs and services ensure that the collection is accessible for enjoyment, learning, research, and reuse by creators. In the digital age, the NFSA’s wealth of stories will be increasingly available across the country and on demand, as outlined in the NFSA Strategic Direction 2022-25.
