borrowing 16mm films
To borrow 16mm films from the collection, an additional application form must be completed and submitted with the membership application.
The 16mm application form must be filled out by the nominated projectionist for the membership, covering their qualifications and experience. The service report part of the form must be completed by a recognised service/repair technician, not the nominated projectionist (unless they can demonstrate sufficient qualifications and experience in doing their own servicing).
