Bay Area Television Archive

Based in the J. Paul Leonard Library at San Francisco State University, the Bay Area Television Archive features more than 135,000 videos from Bay Area television stations. A visit to the new Bay Area Television Archive website is a UA-cam-like rabbit hole of a time machine dedicated to the issues and events that gripped the region decades ago - including speeches by Martin Luther King and Maya Angelou’s entire KQED-TV series “Blacks, Blues, Black” from 1968 - rediscovered and restored by SF State staff member Alex Cherian after not having been seen for decades. Best of all, SF State students can use the archive for free.
