 '''Directory of Analog Film Exhibitors: Project Description'''
-The directory includes exhibitors who show a mix of film and digital and exhibitors who only occasionally show film, as well as exhibitors who show [[16mm]] or other small gauge film but not [[35mm]]. The directory attempts to only include exhibitors who have at least screened film in the past year, and excludes venues that have almost-never used or decommissioned equipment. It is continually being updated.
+Since 2013, we have been cataloging exhibitors of analog film. Today, the directory includes exhibitors who show a mix of film and digital and exhibitors who only occasionally show film, as well as exhibitors who show [[16mm]] or other small gauge film but not [[35mm]]. The directory attempts to only include exhibitors who have at least screened film in the past year or so, and excludes venues that have almost-never used or decommissioned equipment. It is continually being updated.
+The intention of the project is to document the wide array of exhibition settings for analog film around the world, to provide a practical resource for filmgoers hoping to view films in these formats, and to assist filmmakers, archives, and film distributors in researching potential venues for their work.
-This is the public version of the directory, but our research on most of these exhibitors is more detailed than what is available here. We hope to someday build a freestanding website for this project, but for now Sprocket School is its home.

-* The directory is constantly revised as new information becomes available ([http://www.sprocketschool.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_analog_film_exhibitors&action=history see revision history]), but things change fast in filmland so some information may be out of date. We welcome suggestions.
