Re: [Videolib] streaming internationally
Hi Rhonda, Great question! Does your library have the students access the film via the libraries website or the Course Management System? In other words, the students have to authenticate through your university site? I haven't had heard of any problems with Distance Education students here or at other colleges accessing films this way, but that doesn't mean there haven't been problems. Let me/us know so we can keep researching this. It is going to be an issue in distance education.

Re: [Videolib] streaming internationally
Hi Rhonda, Technically anyone can stream internationally. If the stream is coming from a single server (single location) in the US, the stream is much more subject to Internet congestion and other factors that impact quality than a company who's content is hosted by a CDN (Content Delivery Network) that has the content copied on servers around the world. Typically the shorter the delivery distance the more reliable the signal. So the first question to the vendor is how they are hosting. The second question would be rights. It is quite possible a vendor has worldwide rights either because it is their own production, they negotiated those rights up front or they seek a one off exemption for you. The study abroad question becomes murky as Jessica points out. My humble opinion is if a student is enrolled on a US campus and they want to watch a program in their apartment off campus, their parent's home in another state or in another country they are studying in, it would be legal streamed or if they carried a DVD with them. If a school has a foreign branch and they want to license rights for that foreign branch, then the vendor would have to have international rights. My 2 cent interpretation. Hope that helps, Bob Robert A. Norris Managing Director Film Ideas, Inc.

Hi Paul, What I am hoping for, is that we can get the patron version of Polaris (Our Library Catalog link) to show links to Novelist for our non-fiction books, the way that it does for our fiction titles. (If you look up Gone Girls book record you'll see the grey bar with Link to Novelist on it.)

Some have precense in other countries but they would likely have to stream FROM that country. I think this is going to be a NIGHTMARE issue for vendors/distributors. Nearly all contracts cover only a specific geography and they would violating their contracts if they ever allowed one of their films to stream or be accessed outside the US. For ficton feature films there is pretty much ZERO chance you can obtain rights or a US company can help. There might be two possibilities with non fiction material but almost only if the filmmaker is from the US. It would be possible for a distributor to contact one of their filmmakers and ask, it would of course depend on if they ( the filmmaker) had made a deal overseas. There would almost surely be a separate fee. One off the wall possibility that MIGHT give you some wiggle room would be if you could stream the film ONLY DIRECTLY into a specific classroom at a specific time and if the students watching were students from your campus studying abroad. To be honest it would still violate almost any contract but you might try to say that the classroom is academic equivalent of an embassy . Again it would have to be limited to a specific classroom with US based students studying abroad but it is worth a try. Bottom line is that if you need to stream overseas it is like starting from scratch and you will have to research who owns those rights and if it is feasible to do.

I'm looking for a good general overview video for disability awareness. Our VHS on the topic, from 1993, has bit the dust. Any recommendations will be appreciated. In the meantime, I stumbled on this great resource of openly accessible videos: the Disabled World website: http://videos.disabled-world.com/ Features information for and about persons with disabilities. The free video clips include demonstrations of assistive technology, disability sports, homemade videos, teaching disability topics in classrooms, and general health information. Videos for the deaf and hearing impaired include news and disability topics in British Sign Language (BSL), American Sign Language (ASL), and captioning. Includes nearly 40 sub-categories.
