The U.S. Naval Academy Collection of Soviet & Russian TVCompiled by Karen R. Ploucquet
IntroductionThe United States Naval Academy Collection of Soviet and Russian television at the Library of Congress (USNA Collection) features an eclectic amalgam of Soviet programming since 1986 which, at its best, its worst, and even its most mundane, will provide not only a fascinating record of the glasnost era's dynamic effects on Soviet society and television, but also an opportunity for the continued understanding of this era's legacies to future generations. Although the USNA Collection is primarily a Russian-language collection, the language barrier does not necessarily limit use of the Collection to those researchers with Russian language skills. Several tapes feature English voice-overs, while other tapes have been partially translated, or at least abstracted, in the supplementary materials to the Collection. Although most of this kind of documentation has been provided for the regularly- scheduled news programs, researchers with other interests and minimal Russian skills will discover that the audio-visual aspects of the videotape medium itself can provide interesting information on topics such as production/interpretation details for music or ballet performances, significant current events as seen through Soviet news camera footage, or Soviet television production values. This guide, the express purpose of which is to unlock the doors to this valuable but often unwieldy collection, represents the product of a 4-month effort during the summer and autumn of 1992 to transform the USNA Collection into a reader-accessible resource. The information in this guide is derived from supplementary research in some of the books and articles included in the bibliography of materials for suggested further research and from a careful analysis not only of most of those videotapes recorded between December 1988 and February 1991, but also of all the available documentation to the Collection. Thus, the researcher is strongly encouraged to study this guide both before and while using the Collection to conduct research since it is an ever-growing collection comprised not only of several thousand videotapes, but also of various and sundry supplementary materials, including both printed and computer-based abstracts and translations. To help the researcher navigate through this sea of tapes and booklets, this guide provides a detailed description of the Collection, a transliterated list and description of the most regularly featured programs, a guide which explains how to find a program of interest in the Collection's supplementary materials, a guide which explains how to find the Library of Congress shelf number for a given program, a bibliography of materials for suggested further research, and a chronological list of selected documentaries with some subject access. The videotapes in the Collection are available neither for loan nor for use as stock footage in television or film productions, but they may be viewed at the Library by researchers by advance appointment. For further information, see Appendix IV: Guidelines for Viewing Films and Videotapes on page 59 of this guide, or write to: Reference Librarian; Motion Picture, Broadcasting and Recorded Sound Division; Library of Congress; Washington, DC 20540; Telephone: (202) 707-1000.
Description of the CollectionThe History of the CollectionIn the early 1980's, when the international climate was still frozen in Cold-War stalemate and the acquisition of Soviet military intelligence and political information ranked high on the Defense Department's list of priorities, the United States Navy contracted the company International Video Broadcasts, Inc. (IVB), to videotape Soviet television programs from satellite transmissions. Sometime in early 1986, the company proposed sending these tapes to the Library of Congress for archival purposes; the proposal was accepted, and thus the Library's United States Naval Academy Collection of Soviet television came into being. Although acquisitions for the latter half of 1986 were sporadic at best, the Library has been receiving the tapes of Soviet television broadcasts quite regularly since 1987. Since then, the volume and diversity of the USNA Collection have presented substantial challenges to efforts at comprehensive cataloging. As a result, periodic increases or decreases in budget and staff have accounted for certain inconsistencies among various parts of the Collection; these inconsistencies, which are described in considerable detail in Part 4 of this guide, include differences not only in which and how many programs were recorded, but also in how well the recorded programs have been documented. Given the military and political nature of the Navy's impetus for the project, the primary focus of the Collection was initially on the staple domestic and international news programs, respectively entitled Vremia (Time) and Mezhdunarodnaia panorama (International Panorama). The Cold-War sensibility was also one of the primary reasons for discrepancies in the documentation of the various programs; that is, in addition to a heavy emphasis on the taping of programs with a military and political focus in the earlier stages of the project, there has also been a disproportionately strong effort by IVB, in both earlier and later years, to document and translate primarily those programs containing military or political subject matter, even as the Collection has gradually become more diversified. Thus, the non-Russian-speaking researcher who has an interest in military or political topics will have at least some access to, for example, Soviet newscasts, by means of the abstracts and translations in the supplementary materials. The appearance of any other kinds of programs on the early tapes was entirely coincidental; fragments of programs such as arts performances or feature films, which were not considered "important," were recorded only because they immediately preceded or followed the main news program. Nevertheless, between 1988 and 1990, the number of regularly-recorded programs increased steadily; the tapes began to feature a wider array of program genres, including panel discussion programs, interviews with members of government, feature and documentary films, television magazines, educational and entertainment programs for children, concerts, nature shows, broadcasts of entire speeches by Gorbachev, and more. Researchers who possess the requisite Russian language skills and an interest in the above- mentioned programming should not allow the dearth of IVB documentation for these kinds of programs to deter them from seeking out both the regular broadcasts and special features which comprise this part of the Collection. Early in 1991, the taping was again limited to three programs -- 120 Minut (later renamed Utro), Vremia, and Televizionnaia sluzhba novostei. After the coup in August 1991, the three programs continued to be taped, but the name Vremia was changed to TV Inform, which was ultimately changed again in 1992 to Novosti. Please note that the new CIS Novosti is a different one from the brief Soviet Novosti program described in number 26 of Part 2 of this guide. Since January 1992, the only programs of central CIS television which the Library has been receiving are Novosti and its Sunday magazine- format Itogi (Summaries). The Library currently accessions over 70 new videotapes per month. In addition to the videotapes of the central television broadcasts, the Library has also been receiving videotapes of broadcasts by the local television stations of the Russian Republic since October 1991; these tapes feature a larger variety of programs (see page 15) than current CIS television acquisitions.
Tips on Viewing the TapesWith the exception of the relatively recent Russian Republic broadcasts recorded onto 1/2" videotapes in SECAM mode, the video system used in the USSR, most of the USNA Collection is recorded onto 3/4" videotapes in SECAM. Only a few tapes in the collection are recorded in NTSC mode, the video system used in the United States; in these cases, the tape will usually be labeled as such and it will be necessary to adjust the video player to the proper setting. One should not assume that a program will always start at the beginning of the tape. The Soviet television schedule is highly irregular compared to that of the United States. Programs range in length anywhere from 5 minutes to 185 or more and therefore seldom start neatly on the half-hour; the daily program is flexible and often veers from the schedule announced in the printed television guide; regularly-scheduled programs such as Vremia, a hallowed and immovable staple of the programming day, are often sandwiched intrusively in between parts of long special-feature programs (unlike U.S. television, in which special programs, such as lengthy football games, tend more often to interrupt regularly-scheduled programs). Another reason for confusion regarding the beginnings and ends of programs on some of the videotapes is that, given the seeming jumble of the Soviet programming day, sometimes IVB technicians did not record the tapes at the proper time. As a result, some programs are incomplete, missing either their first or last part. Thus, if a program anywhere in the supplementary materials is labelled "Part 2," it is not safe to assume that there exists also a "Part 1." One should also note that many programs have duplicates and even triplicates, which indicates two possibilities: either the program is one which was recorded by two tapers at separate facilities, or one of the tapes features an English voice-over. It is recommended in this situation that the researcher call up all versions of the program. The researcher should be aware that most dates mentioned in the Collection which are indicated by a purely numerical system are based on the European model (see p. 20 for a full explanation). Furthermore, the time of day for programs is noted according to the 24-hour clock (military time) and is based on the Moscow time zone; the only exceptions to this are any times accompanied by the notation "GMT," which indicates Greenwich Mean Time. The final technical obstacle which a researcher might encounter while working with the tapes in this Collection is the possibility of some form of audio-visual disturbance as a result of poor conditions during satellite transmission. The effects of this type of disturbance can range from mildly annoying interruptions to large blocks of lost transmissions which render the tape unviewable. Though efforts have been made either to weed out or to label those tapes with high levels of disturbance, researchers should be aware that they may indeed encounter tapes with poor transmission quality.

Guide to the Documentation of the Collection
IntroductionTo use the USNA Collection, three key routes of access are available:
In all cases, a search will at some point require the researcher to browse the supplementary materials to the Collection. This part of the Guide is designed expressly to help the researcher use the materials to find a program which relates to his or her topic of interest; Part 5 of this Guide is designed to help the researcher locate the shelf number of a given program so that it can be called up for viewing in the MBRS Division of the Library.
The Documentation of the CollectionAs the Collection has changed over time, so also have the supplementary materials changed in format and in content. They fall into the following five categories:
Most of the supplementary materials to the Collection are housed in numbered boxes whose contents are described in considerable detail in Appendix I: Guide to the Boxed Supplementary Materials on pages 29-35. The Soviet Television Card Catalog documents approximately two years of videotapes and is explained in further detail on page 22. The Program Lists on pages 37-45 (Appendix II) cover the period approximately between May 1990 and February 1991 and are described on page 23. The Computer Guides are twenty-seven floppy disks with WordPerfect documents roughly covering 1987 to 1991 and are explained on page 23. Please note that, unfortunately, the Library currently does not have the facilities to make the Computer Guides available to the public. The boxed supplementary materials and the card catalog, however, are available upon request from the reference librarians in the Motion Picture, Broadcasting, and Recorded Sound Division in Room 336 of the Madison Building of the Library of Congress. The researcher should be forewarned that the nature of the supplementary materials to the Collection is highly confusing and inconsistent, which can be ascribed to the history of the Collection's development. When the Library first began receiving the videotapes, the only program being recorded was Vremia. Although Mezhdunarodnaia panorama was added shortly thereafter, the Collection was still manageable enough to be entered, tape by tape, into the MUMS Online Catalog by staff with little or no Russian skills. The MUMS Catalog (Multiple Use MARC System) comprises a major part of the official reader-accessible online computer database used at the Library of Congress; for more information on the Library's MUMS Catalog, please consult either a reference librarian or the booklet entitled Library of Congress Information System: User and Reference Manual, which is available at most online terminals in the Library. About 1000 of the earliest Soviet television acquisitions are available on MUMS and can be accessed either by title or as a group with the command "find c naval academy collection; f=av." The researcher should note that MUMS entries for the Collection provide very little information beyond standard data on program title, date, and shelf number. In the autumn of 1988, a larger variety of programs was added to the Collection. Both the diversity of the programs and the number of videotapes which the Library received increased significantly, and though IVB supplied the Library with documentation to some programs, many other programs not only remained undocumented but also were housed in cases that were labeled poorly with regard both to program title and date. Although some programs were added to MUMS even after the number of videotapes sent to the Library increased, this effort was discontinued soon thereafter; as a result, most of the tapes from the next two years fell victim to the Library's infamous and ever-present "arrearage problem"; although the tapes were in the Library's possession, there would be no record of either their shelf number or their contents until they were identified and accessioned. In 1991, an effort to bring out of arrearage many of the tapes recorded between December 1988 and February 1991 led to the development of the Program Lists and the addition of shelf number information to many of the booklets in the boxed supplementary materials. A staff member assigned shelf numbers to many of the unaccessioned tapes, which had been arranged in chronological order. For those tapes which were recorded during a time period for which International Video Broadcasts had provided descriptive booklets of the programs, the shelf numbers were noted in ink next to the program titles listed in the booklets. For those tapes which at that time lacked any kind of documentation (May 1990 to February 1991), the staff member noted the program title, date, time, and shelf number of a tape on sheets of paper in chronological order -- these sheets of paper are the Program Lists. It should be noted that in most cases, the tapes were not viewed, and the Program Lists only reflect the information written on the outside of the videocassette by the staff at IVB. In the summer of 1992, an effort to continue to bring tapes out of arrearage led directly to the development of the Card Catalog and also of this guide. Although this guide is currently the primary source of information about the Collection, efforts are being made to enter the entire Collection into a single computer database to facilitate the more efficient retrieval of information. This will eventually eliminate the confusing inconsistencies inherent in the many sources which currently document the Collection.
The most confusing aspect of the boxed supplementary materials, most of which are in booklet form, is that their format has been remarkably inconsistent throughout the first years of the Collection. Not only have the titles of the guides changed over the years, but also what information they supply, how the information is presented, what time-frame is covered by a single item, and which programs are featured. These differences will be explained below. Although subject descriptions and even some translations of Vremia broadcasts represent the bulk of the boxed supplementary materials, several other programs are also included for other parts of the Collection; they are Mezhdunarodnaia panorama, Utro, Sluzhu Sovetskomu Soiuzu, and Televizionnaia sluzhba novostei. Please note that in September of 1991 (following the August Coup), Vremia is briefly replaced by Televizionnaia sluzhba novostei, later renamed TV Inform, and finally, as of 1 Jan 92, renamed Novosti. The printed materials reflect these changes as well as the official advent of local television programming; the Library possesses tapes and documentation since October 1991 for both FSU TV (Former Soviet Union TV) and for St. Petersburg and Moscow local television stations (see Box 11). The most regularly-recorded and regulary-documented programs of the Russian television stations are those listed on page 15. There is a strong possibility that, in the future, the Library will begin to receive more television broadcasts recorded from the stations of recently independent, formerly Soviet nations such as Ukraine. Please note that any dates in the boxed supplementary materials indicated by a purely numerical system are based on the European model; that is, "5-1-90" means "5 Jan 90," not "1 May 90." The only exceptions to this are those booklets which document the time-spans of Mar-Sep 1988 and Apr 90- Feb 91; in these cases the system is based on the American model. The following is an alphabetical list of the titles of the various formats in which the boxed supplementary materials appear; it should be used as a glossary in conjunction with the Guide to the Boxed Supplementary Materials on pages 29-35 (Appendix I). Please note that, for whatever dates Program Lists are available, these have been included in the boxes.
Description of the Card CatalogThe card catalog to the USNA Collection contains records of most of the videotapes recorded roughly between December 1988 and February 1991 with one significant gap between April and December of 1989. (This gap is filled by the boxed supplementary materials.) Each card usually provides most of the following information: the romanized Russian title of the program or programs, the English translation of the title, the date of the program, the time of the program, and the Library of Congress shelf number in the top right-hand corner. Any of the above data, except for date and shelf number, may be missing from a card if the information was unavailable. The cards in the catalog are arranged alphabetically according to program and are in chronological order within each program section. For a list and description of the programs in the catalog, please refer back to pages 9-14 of this guide. Several miscellaneous sections have been added to the end of the card catalog where the alphabetic progression of regularly- scheduled programs ends; they are designed to encompass those broadcasts which do not qualify as regular programs. These sections, which the researcher is encouraged to browse since the programs they contain may not appear anywhere else in the supplementary materials, are the following:
As a resource for locating programs, the Program Lists, which cover May 1990 to February 1991, should be used in much the same way as the Card Catalog; they should be browsed. Although the lists are not organized conveniently according to subject or program title, they are arranged chronologically and are short enough so that they can be searched easily according to date or program. Program Lists are located in Appendix II on pages 37-45 and in Boxes 7 and 8 of the boxed supplementary materials.
Although the Computer Guides are currently unavailable for public use, it should be noted that they are a collection of twenty-seven high-density floppy disks which contain WordPerfect documents describing certain portions of the Collection. Housed in two boxes, the disks are organized in the following way:
BOX 1 *"I Serve" -- 24 Jul 88 - 29 Jan 90 -- 3 disks
Extensive translations of selected segments of the program Sluzhu
Sovetskomu Soiuzu/Na sluzhbe otechestvu.
*Indexes -- Apr 87 - Sep 91 -- 7 disks
Brief subject descriptions of news features from Vremia and
Mezhdunarodnaia panorama.
BOX 2 *Stories -- 15 May 87 - 27 Sep 91 -- 17 disks
Extensive translations of selected segments of the program Vremia.

Guide to Finding Shelf NumbersTo view a videotape in the USNA Collection, a researcher must first ascertain its shelf number from the following possible sources:
Please note:
Almost 1000 videotapes in the USNA Collection are available on the MUMS Catalog (see page 18) and can be accessed with the command "find c naval academy collection; f=av." The individual programs included (sporadically) in the catalog are Vremia (search "Vremya"), Na sessii verkhovnogo soveta SSSR, Mezhdunarodnaia panorama, Sluzhu Sovetskomu Soiuzu, Na vtorom sezde narodnykh deputatov, and 120 minut; they can be accessed individually with the command "find t [title of program]; f=av." MUMS entries list shelf numbers under the heading "LC CALL NUMBER." Please note that all dates in MUMS which are represented by a purely numerical system are based on the American model, i.e."5-1-90" means "1 May 90," not "5 Jan 90."
Each card in the catalog represents one tape; for every tape in the catalog, the shelf number has been noted in the top right-hand corner of the card. This will facilitate shelf number access for those researchers who are looking for a program within the time-span covered by the catalog or who are using the catalog as their primary source for information about the existence of a tape.
The Program Lists on pages 37-45 (Appendix II) and in Boxes 7 and 8 of the boxed supplementary materials supply the program title, date, time, and shelf number for a given tape and should be included in searches for programs which fall within the time-span noted above.
