A £9m project to create a national broadcast archive has been awarded a £5m lottery grant.
The National Library of Wales and BBC Wales will develop plans for public access to the broadcaster's archive.
This will be at four digital hubs in Aberystwyth, Wrexham, Carmarthen and Cardiff.
National Library of Wales president Rhodri Glyn Thomas said it would "safeguard this vital source of our nation's heritage".
BBC Wales' archive has about 160,000 recordings which date back to the 1930s and includes reports on World War Two, the Aberfan disaster and the miners' strike.
About 1,000 programme clips will also be made accessible online for people to watch.
