Aim and Scope[edit]

This is a WikiProject for adding and enhancing items in Wikidata for Nollywood (Nigerian films) held on VHS at the Northwestern University Melville J. Herskovits Library of African Studies. These films were primarily produced and collected from 1993-1998. Items will be added with information from the catalog record (MARC). This project is a vital contribution to Nollywood history and its internet presence, as these tapes hold some of the only information about the films.
