The NYU Audiovisual Preservation Program (APEX) is expanding its network of shared knowledge with institutions beyond the US and Latin America, seeking to generate specific actions and doable projects. We have surveyed 37 archival institutions in Latin American to be able to match with projects taking place at the Vulnerable Media Lab and York University (Canada), the Netherlands Institute of Sound and Image, and the Latin American Digital Preservation Network (RIPDASA). Currently, we are advancing work in four areas: funding resources; webinar/training in situ; Twin Cities Archival project (following the model of Twin Cities), and circulation of collections. We would like to provide a brief summary of NYU APEX cooperation philosophy; then we will offer a summary of our findings for this expansion project, the current status of the four projects we have started and specific coordinates to make this initiative extensive to interested international partners and AMIA members.
