The Peabody Awards Collection consists of over 90,000 titles, with radio programmes dating from 1940 and television from 1948. The collection consists of almost all the entries to the awards programme since its beginning in 1941. It contains American, local, and more currently, international, electronic media programs, with content from news, documentary, entertainment, educational, children’s, and public service programming. There are radio transcription discs, audiotape, audiocassettes, 16mm kinescopes and prints, 2" videoreels, videocassettes, websites, and objects associated with the collection. Many of the programmes in the collection may be only surviving copies of the work,especially in the case of local radio and television broadcasting. A database contains records for most of the Peabody Awards entries received between 1940 to date. Programmes may be accessed on site at the University of Georgia libraries.

A collaboration between WGBH and the Library of Congress with a long-term vision to preserve and make accessible significant historical content created by public media, and to coordinate a national effort to save at-risk public media before its content is lost to posterity. During the first phase, scheduled to end in March 2016, the Library and WGBH are overseeing the digitization of approximately 40,000 hours of programs selected by more than 100 public broadcasting stations throughout the nation. Dating from the 1950s to the 21st century and emanating from all regions of the nation, these programs will be available to scholars, researchers, educators, students, and the general public at the Library’s research centre.
The AAPB website includes nearly 2.5 million catalogue records, 72,000 of which describe video and audio content that has been digitized by the AAPB. The records for all 2.5 million records are currently inventory-level and most have not yet been fully catalogued.

This Earth Sciences resource was developed by the Open University to broaden access to rock collections previously only available in universities, museums or specialist institutions. The aim is to engage with students at school or in higher education and to help develop identification and classification skills without the need for expensive microscopes or the facilities to prepare thin slices of rock. Users can zoom, pan and rotate specimens in light conditions that mirror those previously only possible using specialist petrological microscopes. The collections include meteorites as well as a news section and a list of teaching resources.
