Industrial Film Collection

Partnering with the Harvard University Film Foundation, Harvard Business School (HBS) began actively collecting industrial films in the 1920s for teaching and learning. The collection includes a range of industrial films including time-motion studies and demonstrations of manufacturing shop processes.  In addition, the collection includes films produced by HBS for teaching topics like labor relations, the human aspect of administration, business policy, and management.
