[Videolib] Question about temporary viewing rights
Does anyone have contact information (e-mail to person responsible for determining viewing rights preferred) on the following companies: EMI Music RCA VAI DG Some of them provide an opportunity for e-mail feedback or to general questions on their websites but my question is very time sensitive and I need to get in contact with someone as soon as possible as I was planning on showing a DVD from each company for an educational library program on classical music and opera.

Re: [Videolib] Fwd: Happy Birthday!
Well I have to admit the copyright here is VERY suspect. Copyright should date to time the material was first used or published and it appears that was in the teens and that the chain of title which is crucial to copyright is also suspect. However the fact that new words were used for an old melody is irrelevant, the new version would be subject to copyright. Ironically it is the music people who are far more advanced in protecting copyright than film people, largely because ASCAP covers nearly all music and they are most aggressive.

[Videolib] Citing media - APA 6th edition
Hi all, A very persnickety question. When citing film with the new APA style guidelines, 6th edition, is format always listed as [motion picture] or can it be a more medium specific, [DVD].

[Videolib] Not video, but issues just as relevant - Contract law
The Kansas State Librarian argues that its consortium owns, rather than licenses, content from OverDrive, as they seek to move to a new platform rather than renew with OverDrive.

Re: [Videolib] Not video, but issues just as relevant - Contract law
I don't know anything about Overdrive, but doesn't key section seem contradictory? The first sentence says Overdrive will assist in transferring material the library has purchased and the 2nd sentence says they have to obtain permission from the rights holders. I think the interesting thing will be the contract between Overdrive and various rights holders. My guess is that it did not include the rights to sell material for continuous use ( few of these contracts do on films at least) and if that is the case the library would at best end up suing Overdrive claiming they misrepresented the rights but the again if contract between rights holders to Overdrive did not include rights for continues use and platform transfer then they would be correct in claiming Overdrive never had the right to sell it and the contract is invalid. It should be interesting.
