I don't think they can project it as interlaced, so I hope they've digitized it through a TBC into a proper 60p with correct aspect ratio and plenty of bitrate.

I came across a digitization project lead by one of the nation's universities, and the clips they had online are in 30.00 fps progressive - not 29.97 fps interlaced or 59.94 fps progressive. I asked them whether these are just low-bitrate web files, and maybe they have properly converted files in their vault, possibly available for interested parties for a fee, and they responded that basically it is what it is. I was flabbergasted.

Another digitization project, MediaBurn, also has digitized early 1990s videos in 30p. So much for preservation.
