[Videolib] Fwd: FCC sets new rules for online video clips | TheHill
Good morning: Thought I'd share this: http://thehill.com/policy/technology/211958-fcc-sets-rules-for-online-video-clips Excerpt: Friday’s vote sets requirements for online video clips that have aired on television with closed captions, mimicking current requirements for full-length online videos that originally were broadcast with captions on television. The new requirements apply to video distributors like broadcasters and cable and satellite companies.

[Videolib] Opening Day collections
Hi, all, Next spring, we will be moving into a brand new library! Yay for us. I'm starting to look at opening day collections for DVD and CDs. Not that I think we'll have any funds for it, but just in case. For films, along with Academy Award winners (which I know can be controversial), AFI lists, National Film Registry, is there anything else to look at? This can also include television, Spanish films, and information/documentaries. Thanks a lot! Becky Tatar Periodicals/Audiovisuals Aurora Public Library 1 E.

[Videolib] Feature Films and libraries
Hi everyone, I’m writing up a PPR/Feature Film blurb for our website. When faculty / grads / students want to show a feature film, do you direct them to Swank or Criterion, or does your library (librarian, media library) investigate? How many of you consider this a library service? For the most part, this will not come out of our budget, but folks ask how to get rights and I wanted to give them a decent answer. Right now my advice to them is to contact Swank Digital (on their own). I’m completely happy to help all of them, but it might be best if they know how to begin on their own.

Re: [Videolib] Feature Films and libraries
You can always give them leads but I think you need to obviously extra careful if they plan to use a library copy.

Re: [Videolib] Feature Films and libraries
lorraine! I think many academic libraries handle this in different ways. Here at USC we unfortunately don’t have a media librarian. By default, I do act as sort of one but it is only one of the many responsibilities which I have here. Because of this, I have neither the time nor (quite frankly) the inclination to pursue investigating PPR for groups wishing to show feature films on campus. I am always happy, however, to refer such groups to Swank and other such companies. But I let the student groups know at the same time that it is strictly their responsibility to obtain the necessary licenses and to pay the necessary fees. USC has nearly 2700 documentary films on DVD, but because 99.78% of them were purchased at the “institutional rate”, at least USC students are spared the hassle of having to obtain PPR for them. Feature films are another matter. Cheers! Anthony *** Anthony E.

Re: [Videolib] Feature Films and libraries
Hi Lorraine, my response more or less follows this thought process: 1. If we have the film in our collection, then go to step 2a. If we don't already have the film in our collection then go to step 2b. 2a. i check to see if it was purchased with appropriate licensing. If we do have appropriate screening rights then go to step 3a. If we don't have the correct license for public screenings then go to step 3b. 2b. Try to find a vendor offering the dvd with PPR for the life of the disc. If i find a vendor with ppr licensing at a reasonable price then i'll buy it for the library collection and hope it arrives in time for the screening. Once i know i can get the film with PPR then i let the faculty member know it's on order and say for future reference, check out the information on the different licenses here: http://library.tulane.edu/collections/mmc/copyright. Step 3a. Happily say yes! use our copy for your screening! and for future reference, check out the information about different licensing rights and what you can and can't do: http://library.tulane.edu/collections/mmc/copyright. Step 3b. Check to see if it's available for campus streaming via Swank or Criterion. If yes, go to step 4a. If no, go to step 4b. 4a. Refer the faculty member to Swank or Criterion as appropriate and suggest going through University Student Activities Office which has accounts with both companies and organizes regular campus screenings (perhaps your campus has similar movie nights?). 4b. Try to find out if its possible to purchase one-time screening rights for the physical copy already in our collection and connect the faculty member or group with the appropriate person to make the purchase. I will buy DVDs with PPR but for the life of the disc only; the organizing faculty or group would have to purchase one-time screening rights that can be applied to the copy we already have in our collection (this can take quite a bit of communication tact between yourself, the faculty, and the vendor). Hope something in there is helpful. Best, -lisa H.
