The Cosgrove Hall Films Archive sale highlights a growing concern about cultural heritage preservation in the digital age The recent sale of the Cosgrove Hall Films archive to a private buyer has sparked renewed debate about the importance of preserving cultural heritage in the digital age.

Cultural heritage encompasses not only physical artifacts and monuments but also intangible assets such as music, literature, and television shows.
