Session 2 is devoted to the Beyond the printed word exhibition, the research that went into the planning of it and the results six months after the official opening. In a progress report, Ernest Dick, project coordinator, relates some of the history of the undertaking and outlines the aims behind the concept and the guiding principles in the selection of the 246 items featured on opening night. The statistics he quotes on the number of visitors, the frequency of screenings, as well as the possibility that the exhibition might become semi-permanent, pointed to a resounding testimony of success. M. Dick souligne, en passant, le caractère vraiment bilingue de l'exhibition. He then dwells briefly on the focal points of the exhibition: "The Remember when..." component, the television kiosk, the Newsreel Theatre and the Radio Living Room, on the process of selecting some of the constituent items and the popularity of the news extracts. After their introduction, Archivists Rosemary Bergeron and Jean-Paul Moreau talk about their experiences in co-ordinating the search for material. They comment on their successes and failures in finding items on their "wish lists" and on the reasons why some records of important events could not be found. They describe the ways used to skirt problems caused by non-available documentation about broadcasting and by gaps in the continuity of events. Both archivists acknowledge the help received from others, both in MISA and outside the division. Claude Minotto ajoute que critique de l'exhibition Au-delà de l'écrit. Inspiré par la presse écrite, il fait allusion au local de l'exhibition et à la diffusion relativement restreinte du programme parmi le public. Utilisant le terme "jukebox historique" il compare l'exhibition aux autres initiatives de ce genre des Archives nationales.~Il s'interroge sur la valeur éducative des deux "circuits" actualisés par la module "Vous souvenez-vous..." et celles des médias. Il termine en affirmant que l'exposition va encourager les producteurs au niveau institutionnel à conserver leurs documents. The session ended with a series of questions and answers.
