[Videolib] More proof that media is the redheaded step child in the academy
In case you are not already aware, the Association of College Research Libraries' Research Planning and Review Committee released their Environmental Scan 2013 this past April. The 45 page document is freely available at http://www.ala.org/acrl/sites/ala.org.acrl/files/content/publications/whitepapers/EnvironmentalScan13.pdf The report focuses on the following areas: Trends in Higher Education; Future of the Profession; Scholarly Communication; Radical Collaboration; Technology; and Assessment and Accountability. Go ahead, I dare you…. Find the references to media in the report. No mention of the upsurge in streaming video, the demise of vast collections of VHS that are approaching obsolescence and may be irreplaceable, no mention of collaborative media collection development, or of the possibilities of PDA for media collection development. Pathetic. I'll get off my soap box now. deg farrelly, Media Librarian Arizona State University Libraries Hayden Library C1H1 P.O.

[Videolib] Fwd: Film as memoir
Hi, I received this request from a prof and thought it would be fun for the list. I thought of these documentaries, but I'm sure she is also interested in feature films: Capturing the Friedmans 51 Birch Street Tarnation Thanks, Jeff UMich .. I'm creating a new course on writing memoir, and I want to include a couple of films. One that I haven't seen yet but that I think will fit well is Stories We Tell, a documentary by Sarah Polley about her deceased mother that incorporates the memories of a range of family and friends and in the process reveals a great deal about those being interviewed. Another possibility is Persepolis, based on the graphic novel/memoir by Marjane Satrapi. Do you have other films you could suggest that would fit this genre? Films that raise interesting questions about storytelling, memory, truth, conflicting versions of events, etc. would be particularly interesting.

Re: [Videolib] Film as memoir
The first title that jumps to mind for me is SHOAH Follow up on that with any number of films from Holocaust survivors. Also, Word is Out (didn't Dennis Doros help to restore it?), and the two films (names escape me right now) that tell the story of the development of the ACT UP movement. deg farrelly, Media Librarian Arizona State University Libraries Hayden Library C1H1 P.O.

Re: [Videolib] Film as memoir
Hi Jeff, José Padilha's Secrets of the Tribe would be an interesting fit. It's a 'film that documents a he said-he said war of egos fought among ethically dubious anthropologists on opposing sides of a theoretical debate that includes accusations of genocide and pederasty.' Rather incriminating tale of Napoleon Chagnon Jacques Lizot's treatment of the Yanomami tribe in the Amazon. Could work well if the professor was interested in academic/accepted memory in comparison to personal/experiential memory.

Re: [Videolib] More proof that media is the redheaded step child
deg, I agree with your assertion to a large extent. That said, point of fact, the report does provide some nods to trends in media intersection with academic libraries. There are several members of our community, such as myself, who are additionally engaged in services related to these trends. Variety of formats (sometimes code for media): (p. 2, Librarians will be challenged to provide services in a variety of formats, for a variety of students who are attending their institution (and others).) Multimodal Scholarship: (p. 10, publications that support embedded media formats; p. 15, encourage and use digital media formats for broad dissemination of information.) Media Production: (p. 23, Universities and libraries that do not embrace the potential for multimedia production, project management, and university services (Johnson, Adams, and Cummins 2012) could quickly fall behind the curve.) Still, agreed, it is a bit stunning that educational media collections and concomitant issues are completely absent, particularly at a time when eLearning seems to be all the rage. A/V preservation of local collections appears to be overlooked as well, even when the authors had a prime opportunity to explicitly include it (p. 15, Methods for providing discovery, access, delivery, and preservation of nontext scholarship (cell lines, data sets, etc.) will continue to change the landscape of scholarly communication.).

Re: [Videolib] Film as memoir
INteresting aspects, all. And visual intrigue to be sure. But, whoa, Nellie! What is the nature f the course here? Are we talking about teaching 1st/2nd year anthro students who haven't declared a major , or are we looking at satisfying the needs of gossipy graduate students jaded on the intrigues of going native? Do you want Grandma waxing poetic about Grandpa bringing in the sheaves or do you want true tales of nasty deeds that went bump in the night? Frankly, I'm confused.

Re: [Videolib] Film as memoir
Shoah is superlative, but it is probably prohibitively long. A searing documentary that tackles the same subject, the Holocaust, which I agree should be strenuously considered for a represented memoir film (though that, what a memoir film is, in this context is, and what it's trying to convey, is still sketchy to me, and I agree with Randal that not enough info about the course and students has been provided) is Manfred Kirchheimer'sWe Were So Beloved. Positively a knockout.
