I am an undergrad student in Minnesota studying archives and I had a
question that I thought someone might be able to help me with.  I have
some VHS tapes that old home recordings were put on.  It has now been
several years and I'm worried that they will deteriorate too much.  What
would be the next step in preserving these?  Is there another format that
I could put them on that has a better shelf life or should they just
continue to be transferred to new VHS tapes?  Thank you.
