Database for existing nitrate film locations?

I remember watching Portrait of Jennie and thinking: 'Wow this would look great in nitrate."
Later I learned a lot of people had already come to the same conclusion, it was one of the films featured in the Nitrate film festival's first year in Rochester.
Is there some kind of database that lists if a particular film exists in nitrate, and what collection it is in? (or the obvious follow up question: Does the film exist in nitrate in a condition good enough to be projected?)
For example: If a nitrate print exists of I Know Where I'm Going, where is it and how accessible is it?
