Beyond the incredibly helpful Kodak Film Notes and other articles found in the Manuals and Tips sections of this site, are there any other resources for a novice projectionist? Something that covers everything from splicing, rewinding, building a film, projector jams, platter trouble shooting, proper sound adjustment, etc.? A book maybe? [Confused]

John,

Where is the link to the ITEA/SMPTE version of the BKSTS manual? I can't recall the last time SMPTE had it on their site.

AFAIK, SMPTE contracted with Amazon.com to distribute any SMPTE publications:

I recall that Pat Moore noted they were planning on updating the manual.
