This suggestion has at least one strike against it for your situation (west
coast) but I'll again mention the Bay Area Video Coalition's Preservation
Access Program.

https://bavc.org/preserve-media/preservation-access-program

The application process opens twice a year and is relatively painless (they
require an inventory of your assets but you're going to want to do that
anyway). They have a long queue of work so, in my case, it was ten (more?)
months before my files were ready. But they have a wide range of
well-maintained equipment and well-trained, passionate staff in house, so
the care and quality is top notch.

They've done work for the Visual Studies Workshop collection recently and
didn't Tara Nelson post something on Frameworks about Morgan Morel, BAVC's
Preservation Manager, giving a workshop in Rochester quite recently?

Hope this info's useful to someone.

Eric
