About the Exhibit

Administered by the Texas State Library and Archives Commission as part of TexShare, TexTreasures is an annual competitive grant program funded by the Institute for Museum and Library Services designed to help member libraries make their special collections more accessible to researchers across Texas and beyond. It is available for projects that involve cataloging, indexing, and digitizing local materials with statewide significance, and helps Texas public and academic libraries provide access to their local collection holdings by making information about these holdings available to library users across the state.

Through the generous support of the TexTreasures Grant Program, over 500 unique archival videos from the KUHT Film & Video Collection were digitized and are now available online via the University of Houston Libraries Audio/Video Repository.
