I am honestly overwhelmed by the stories you all have been sharing about how much this library means to our collective film history. The momentum here belongs entirely to the people who recognize that this archive is worth fighting for even when it feels like a long shot. I am currently reaching out to archives and institutions to see if we can find a permanent home for these materials.

I I am a historian and researcher in Brazil, and I am writing about the singer and actress Carmen Miranda, 'The Brazilian Bombshell', who for seven years made ten films at TCFox. I do not need to write anything else for preservation.
My grandfather worked on the lot for years and always talked about how much knowledge was kept in those shelves. Keep it open.
Worked on a few projects that relied on these reference books. It would be a huge loss for the whole industry if they shut it down.
THOSE CLIPPING FILES ARE LITERALLY GOLD FOR DOCUMENTARIANS. DONT BE IDIOTS AND THROW THEM OUT.
This library is a treasure. You cant replace physical archives like this once they are gone. Please stop destroying film history.
Save the Fox Research Library!

I would like Disney to end its collaboration with 20th Century Studios before it reverts to its old name of 20th Century Fox as before.
