This is my understanding as well. Under Section 108(c) of U.S. Code Title 17[1], reproduction for replacement is permitted when the existing format is obsolete, which means the equipment is no longer manufactured or available for purchase. The world's last VCR was manufactured in July 2016

A librarian wants to give a faculty member a copy of a video file for one-time use (either delivered directly as a digital file, or burned onto a DVD) that they can be sure will be destroyed after that one use. I don't think that's truly possible, but wondered if other libraries are using
