[Videolib] Educational PPR
List members, I noted this today on a vendor website: Educational Public Performance Rights (PPR) allow for screening IN A CLASSROOM SETTING ONLY for matriculated students in any not-for-profit institution - universities, museums, galleries, libraries, microcinemas, community centers, or educational institutions, in an educational context. This assertion seems to contradict what U.S. Copyright Title 17 states regarding library and classroom use (performance or display of work by instructors or pupils in the course of face-to-face teaching activities of a nonprofit educational institution, in a classroom or similar place devoted to instruction). I know that this topic has been well discussed on the list, but educational public performance rights was a new wrinkle for me. Thanks, Karen G.

Re: [Videolib] Educational PPR
Actually I am not sure I see a big difference though the use of the phrase educational public performance rights seems to be used instead of face to face exemption . However in this case the rights seem to cover a wide variety of regular outside the classroom PPR showings.

Re: [Videolib] Educational PPR
It would be legally sufficient, but as we have discussed the seller can pretty much set their own terms by contractIF they are the only source of the film. I would say the vast majority of educational film distributors whose films are not sold retail or through third parties require you to purchase PPR rights even if you only plan to use the title in the classroom. A lot depends on the exact wording in terms of if you can go around this, but again a seller can set conditions of sale beyond what copyright permits. I have no idea the nature of the title involved here, but realistically most educational films have a very limited audience so companies could not survive selling my infamous ( and non existent) documentary on a lesbian basket weaving cooperative in Bolivia at $29.95 and hoping lots of folks would buy it. However this kind of sale can only work if the rights holder controls all the sales and the title does not go through 3rd parties.

Re: [Videolib] Educational PPR
Dear Karen, Actually it would not be sufficient. To use in a classroom setting you would need to purchase PPR rights. Otherwise it is not legal, and is unfair to the writers directors and all of those who work hard to create content. Not unlike downloading movies or for that matter music.

Re: [Videolib] FW: notice to faculty re video/dvd acquisitions
Hi Rhonda Our budget is in the mid 80Ks...a lot of stuff coming in, so, unless a faculty person or grad instructor has specifically requested the title, we don't really push any information out. What I DO do (daily)is schmooze with almost each and every instructor that walks in the door to find out what they're teaching, what their research interests are, etc. The follow-up line is frequently: Have I got a new title for you!!) Only very occasionally do I push an email out to a faculty person...if I did this every time we purchased something new, I'd be persona non grata very quickly) I have a new acquisitions blog which NO ONE reads...

Re: [Videolib] notice to faculty re video/dvd acquisitions
My responses are in red below. I do always try to make sure any media requested by faculty is given priority regarding ordering/cataloging/processing/notification, because that usually means they are hoping to use it as soon as possible. As with most media librarians, I acquire/select materials all over the subject-board, and work with faculty across disciplines. So it's harder to have a nice, straight-forward routine notification process. At the same time, I find myself often dealing with the same faculty from a department, but they aren't necessarily the faculty liaisons tapped for other CD work.

Do you notify the selector when the item has come in? -- Yes, always. 1a) Do you only notify the selector when it is a rush? 2. If you have Faculty library liaisons in each department, do you notify them of new media in their subject area? - I try to notify department reps when possible, but less of a priority. I used to keep a New Media webpage...I haven't switched this over to our Libguide approach yet. I'm only about a year+ behind...:) 2a) if so, do you ask them to spread the word 2b) if not, do you notify the department at large by sending a mass email t to all the profs? 3. Do you notify librarian subject selectors and ask them to forward on the notification? - I work closely with subject selectors, and communicate regularly with them. I'm also a subject selector for electronic and print. 4. Do you rely solely on an online newsletter or monthly acquisitions list for books and media in one? - I guess this would be my What's New in Media web-thing, which still need to be reborn. Hopefully the individual e-mails I'm doing now bridge most of the notification needs. 5. Alternatives? Thanks for any responses, Rhonda Rhonda Rosen| Head, Media Access Services William H.

Re: [Videolib] notice to faculty re video/dvd acquisitions
Rhonda, We used to put faculty requester information into our order records when they asked us to purchase titles, and then when it was received and cataloged, a postcard/email was sent to them announcing it's arrival. Now that we are faced with patron confidentiality issues, we felt we could no longer place their names in order records that many staff see. We stopped notifying at that time. We do produce a 'new title' list each month that is available from our library's main home page. If a library liaison was involved, they work directly with the faculty and may watch to see when a requested item has been received and then send them an email announcement. Usually what I tell faculty that call and speak directly with me is that when the order has been placed, they will find the title in our online opac with a status of 'on order'. Once they see that record in the system, they can contact our circulation desk and they can place a hold on the item for them. After the item has been received, the status gets changed by our cataloging staff to read 'one copy being processed". It will only be a short time later that it should be available for use. And if they have asked for a hold to be placed, they will be notified by our circulation staff that it is available at the desk for them to checkout. I think they will hold it for three days and then it goes on to the shelf for the rest of our patrons. Hope this helps.

Re: [Videolib] Apple making available Russian films without approval
From a colleague who is more well versed on international copyright that I am. Michael Brewer Team Leader for Instructional Services University of Arizona Libraries brew...@u.library.arizona.edu --- It's the TRIPS Agreement, implementing the Berne Convention, that put eligible foreign works into (or back into) copyright in the U.S., starting on January 1, 1996. A key condition is that the work was protected on the restoration date in the country of origin. The restoration date for the Russian Federation was 1/1/96. On that date, eligible works originating in the territory of the Russian Federation, and still in copyright there, obtained a U.S. copyright term. Many eligible works that were still in copyright under Russian Federation law on 1/1/96, but their copyright terms have since expired in Russia. At the same time, the U.S copyrights have a life of their own and may still be in effect. For example, a work that was published in Moscow in 1930 by an author who died in 1952, barring any exceptional situations, would have expired in the Russian Federation in 2002. But because it was still copyrighted in the RF on 1/1/96, it would have been restored in the U.S. The U.S. term for that work would be 95 years from publication- thus it is protected in the U.S. through 2025. These situations are very common- copyright terms can widely diverge from one country to another on the same work.
