[Videolib] Home Vision (or homevision) Distributor?

[Reichert, Allen]

Hi all,

There is a series we are interested in called Portrait of an Artist - Here
is one example from the series -
http://www.amazon.com/Portrait-Artist-Andy-Warhol-VHS/dp/630299604X/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top


It seems like this might have been from a British television show
originally, and it was distributed by Home Vision (or possibly homevision).
 Would anyone know if this company still exists? We're interested in the
whole series.

Thanks,
Allen Reichert

Home Vision was a division of Films Incorporated and is long gone. Image
had some of their stuff but clearly something like that would be long
expired. Back in that time most distribution contracts were for 7 years, 10
at the most. Obviously companies often would renew them but not if they no
longer exist.

Re: [Videolib] Media Item labels

[Bergman, Barbara J]

When we repackage DVDs into locking case, we move the paper insert (or use 
color copier to re-create the DVD art & info.)
For foreign films, we add label so that title can be read in English and 
original language. Ex: Como agua para chocolate / Like water for chocolate.  We 
have a few DVDs that aren't Region-1encoded, so those get sticker warning that 
they won't work on US DVD player.
Our handful of BluRay discs get put in the smaller blue cases that identify 
them as BluRay.

Since all films can be used for face-to-face teaching, I'm curious why you add 
label stating that. We add note to bib record if DVD purchase included public 
performance rights.
The default billing for overdue videos is set at $200 (it's remarkably 
effective in getting cheap titles returned). This is automatically sent via 
email. If patron lets us know that item is truly lost, we negotiate actual 
replacement cost.
Student workers are trained to include "to avoid late fees..." when they tell 
patron due date.

Good Morning,

I'd like to find out what types of label(s) you include on/inside your media 
cases when cataloging.  We've recently merged with the main library and I have 
some concerns about what is being left off.  However, I'm hoping maybe I'm just 
over reacting.  Ours may have been a little overkill as we included, inside the 
case "For face-to-face teaching/ No public performance license" and  
"Duplication of copyrighted material is prohibited..."  on narrow bright orange 
labels. Ours is in a closed stack so there are no security strips needed.  When 
applicable, a label stating the item cost over $100 was also affixed. Also, do 
you keep the dvd cover on the case?  Your thoughts and opinions will be greatly 
appreciated ! You may email me separately if you prefer.

Thanks.
