Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
Don't get me started... The UCB Media Center started out as part of the Moffitt Undergraduate Library, and so, in the early years, reported to the Head of that library. In 1993, the undergrad library was reorganized, folded, stapled, and mutilated. Most professional staff were disbursed into the Main Library staff pool...except: a handful of librarians remained behind to form what was called the Teaching Library--i.e. the bibliographic instruction unit for the humanities and social sciences. The Media Center stayed put physically, and reported to the head of that program (now called Instructional Services) We still report to the head of that program...for historical reasons, more than anything. Makes no real sense in my book, but then again, less and less makes sense to me around here. As a grotesque side: we've recently gone through a paroxysm of what campus has ironically called an Operational Excellence planning-- i.e. grasping at straws thru layoff and reorg. As part of this madness, many org charts have been redrawn, including the reporting lines of MRC: I still report directly to the head of Instructional Services, BUT (be still, my blood pressure) so does Gisele and all the student employees in MRC...this, in reality, means absolutely nothing, except to make the library look like it did its duty by flattening the administrative org chart. More than you ever wanted to know, eh? Greetings, I see by the Videolib Archives that this question hasn't been asked in a while, and so I'll pose it to the group this morning.

Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
My situation here at the University of Southern California is perhaps rather unique. I am a not media librarian--at least not in the sense that many on this list appear to be. Among my responsibilities is that I am the selector for our Leavey Libray's video collection, which entails each year selecting dvds with a budget of around $45,000--sometimes less, often more. In addition, I am the Library's selector for a myriad of different disciplines--including Theater, Dance, Historiography, Asian History, African History, Australian/Oceania History, British History, Middle East History, West European History, Holocaust Studies, GLBT Studies, and Library Science. Because my office is located in our university's political science library, and that I do reference work there, my reviewing officer is the head of the political science library. Because of the work I do with the Leavey Library, I am often in communication with that library's director, but I do not in any sense report to her. It is all rather crazy at times.

[Videolib] Media with public performance rights owned or purchased--your method for keeping track?
I've already addressed these questions to listservs for media catalogers, art librarians, and visual resource librarians, with the goal of exploring best practices for our own collections, but would be remiss if I didn't ask the specialists on VIDEOLIB. If you only know some of the answers, perhaps there's someone else at your library able willing to fill in the blanks? 1. In your academic library media collections, how do you keep track of the media titles for which your institution owns or the library has purchased public performance rights (PPR)? 2. For media collections supporting instruction, are non-theatrical titles (documentaries, interviews, etc.) normally purchased with PPR, or only selectively? 3. Is it important that faculty have access to PPR information at your institution? Are institutional guidelines on PPR easily accessible? 4. Does the responsibility to note or keep track of PPR fall on your selectors, on acquisitions staff, on catalogers, or on a media specialist? 5. How is PPR information recorded? In the original order record, in the bibliographic record, or another way? 6. If the information is stored in the MARC record, which field is used? 540, 590, or a general note in a 500 field? Does data in this field display in your online catalog? 7. Is PPR information easily retrievable from your ILS? If not, how do your librarians and/or faculty access this information per item? Alternatively, do you maintain a list of distributors for which performance rights are standard with purchase (e.g., Films in the Humanities Sciences)? I will create a digest of responses to share, upon request. Many thanks, Kathy Edwards Reference Collection Development Librarian Emery A.

[Videolib] Blu-Ray vs. DVD players for training videos
My media person and I are meeting with the AV consultants for a new building this afternoon. I need your collective wisdom. Our college is a small, two-year technical college. The library purchases very few non-technical media. We mainly purchase industrial training or health related media. We still have many VHS tapes. We are systematically updating them, but we refuse and cannot afford to purchase a DVD that is the same the same as the VHS tape. For example: Ohms Law has not changed in that last several hundred years. We have also subscribed to some streaming media such as the Health Collection from Films On Demand. Our AV consultant spec'd out a Blu-Ray/VCR combo, but it is no longer available. They have proposed just a Blu-Ray player with a no VHS. We are thinking that a DVD/VHS unit with several Blu-Ray players that can use an input on the Extron controller would be more appropriate for our use. But we want to be forward thinking. We keep telling the AV consultant to design for the future. For example, we had to fight for HDMI. Do you see our type of training media going to Blu-Ray in the near future? Thanks for your input.

Re: [Videolib] Who do you report to?
Our media operations has always been supported by the undergraduate reserves department. Until four years ago, reserves reported to the director of the history and humanities division -- reserves now reports to the director of access services. I continue to report to the director of the history and humanities division -- we are all subject selectors and public service librarians. I continue to be the main selector for the media collection and to some extent less involved in the operations -- however this is difficult to nearly impossible since expertise is required for many questions that arise e.g., streaming, copyright, public performance, VHS to DVD preservation project, etc. -- I am directly involved with these issues. Both directors report to an associate university librarian (one of three) that reports to the university librarian.

Re: [Videolib] videolib Digest, Vol 47, Issue 61
The reporting line is likewise unorthodox here. I report to the director of the Physical Sciences and Engineering unit because our primary learning commons space (which includes the film/video collection) is in the Science and Engineering library. My director reports to the AUL for Academic Programs Division who reports to the Director of the Library. Being the head of the Media Services program in a media specialist role, this model works well.

Re: [Videolib] Blu-Ray vs. DVD players for training videos
Granted, there are not a lot of these, but I did locate a couple of models that do both. If you find one you like, make sure you buy extras for replacement units. I think since BluRay players can run standard DVDs, that combination would be the simplest for your user group (IMHO). From experience, I know that faculty don't always think about ordering a special player ahead of time, and hooking one into a podium or equipment cabinet at the last minute can be a hassle for support staff. Good luck, whatever you decide.

Re: [Videolib] Academic library video/DVD loan policies
Tim - ILL of video is kind of my soapbox. We've benefitted far more than we've been inconvenienced by opening up video lending. 1. If isn't not on reserve or booking for a screening, it's eligible for lending to university community, community, or to other libraries who lend videos. (Excluding videos such as counseling titles that having lending restricts via licenses). 2. We lend reciprocally. If your library's policy is to not ILL videos, we will not lend videos to you. Resource sharing is about fairness. 3. Cost shouldn't be the only reason to not lend. None of us can afford to buy everything. Evaluate requests for out-of-print materials on a title-by-title basis and/or based on the requesting library. ILL guidelines are that if something happens once an item leaves your library, the borrowing library pays (i.e. worry about what your own patrons are borrowing, not what you're lending). See article in the Library Trends AV issue. Feel free to email me directly for more info.

Re: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early...
I can't really watch scary movies. Can't sleep afterwards. But I do like the originals of Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll Mr Hyde with Spencer Tracy, and the best - The Uninvited with Ray Milland. I have heard that the best ghost story is the 1961 version of The Haunting, with Julie Harris. However, I read that book once, and had nightmares. I can't even think about watching it.

Re: [Videolib] Blu-Ray vs. DVD players for training videos
I think you're going to need the VHS player a lot more than the Blu-Ray, but a Blu-Ray player does play regular discs, so if you find a combo Blu-Ray/VHS, you should be good. I'm having a hard time picturing technical films being distributed in high definition... By HDMI, do you mean making sure the projectors can display Blu-Ray level resolution?

Re: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early...
Trilogy of Terror (the Karen Black episode in particular) scared the holy living s--- out of me (1975!)...hard to believe it was broadcast on TV back then. (Written by Richard Matheson, one of my heroes!) gary handman ...and yeah, I was alone in the house when I watched it. Mine are actually tv schlock horror pieces, that left a big impression on me as a kid. There's three: 1.

Re: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early...
Reading the other responses reminded me of going to see Todd Browning's Freaks with the other AV guy when we were both in grad school. It may not be as scary as some of the other films already mentioned But we were stoned to the gills that nite (it * was * the 70's, afterall) and the film totally freaked me out. -deg VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions.

Re: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early...
I'm one of the few that thinks The Blair Witch Project is possibly the scariest movie ever--for some reason, it pushed my buttons and scared the bejeebus out of me. Paranormal Activity also had its effective moments. The found footage genre is a guilty pleasure for me. As for older films, some of my favorite scary movies would include (in no particular order): The Haunting (1963) Psycho The Wolf Man (1941) Nosferatu (both Murnau and Herzog versions) An American Werewolf in London Alien The Uninvited (1944) Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) The Fly (1986) The Wicker Man (1973) Night of the Living Dead (1968) The Changeling (1980) And in the guilty pleasure category: The Legend of Boggy Creek Plan 9 from Outer Space The Tingler Michael Logan Acquisitions and Technical Services Humboldt County Library (707) 269-1962 From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] on behalf of Ball, James (jmb4aw) [jmb...@eservices.virginia.edu] Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2011 1:13 PM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early...

Re: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early...
Yes, that final shot of Karen Black smiling into the camera definitely stays with you. There were quite a few well-done, scary, made-for-TV movies back in the '70s--those you named, plus I remember the original Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, and The Night Stalker. And the elusive Killdozer, of course... :-) Michael Logan Acquisitions and Technical Services Humboldt County Library (707) 269-1962 From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] on behalf of elizabeth mcmahon [elizmcma...@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2011 3:51 PM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: Re: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early...

[cid:image54e829.GIF@acb2aed1.48a23a5f] this is aacc Anyone from Pittsburgh? And old enough to remember “Chilly Billy” Cardille and his Saturday night television program, Chiller Theatre? Bill came on after the 11 p.m. news ended and featured horror, fantasy, and sci fi films. My sister and I scared ourselves nearly every Saturday night while we were growing up. Chiller Theatre was my intro to horror films. If interested, see http://www.chillertheatermemories.com/TheLab.html . Turn your computer’s speakers down first!
