Professor John Wyver, Professor of Arts on Screen at the University of Westminster, joins us to discuss his involvement in the recent campaign opposing changes to access at the BBC Written Archive Centre.
We explore the archive’s purpose, the proposed access restrictions and their impact, the consultation process, potential alternative solutions, and the broader challenges facing public service broadcasting and the arts at the BBC.
There is no public catalogue of this archive, which seems to me is totally extraordinary for such an important repository. But also, some two-thirds of this archive have not been made available for anybody to research, so two-thirds of it remains closed in secret.
