WGBH is in the process of putting old news film and tape as far back as 1959 in a digital archive that will be available. The old WHDH-TV library is included as is WCVB and WGBH. WBZ and WFXT seem to be interested as well. http://www.boston.com/ae/tv/articles/2011/07/09/wgbh_builds_boston_tv_news_archive/?sudsredirect=true
