Good morning,
A graduate student is looking for a copy of the 1965 film by Jack Willis, Lay
My Burden Down. It was shown on NET back in the 60's. So far, I can only find
four institutions that seem to have a copy. None has it on VHS although I saw
a record in World Cat for a vhs copy. The
I don't think there ever where any VHS copies. That Worldcat listing is
likely a mistake as it shows no copy held but that NYPL ( the listing) does
have 16mm. Sadly lots of things never made to VHS or any digital format.
It seems to exist only in 16mm. There was a screening of it last year at
The 16mm print that was screened at BAM last year came from the Reserve
Film and Video Collection of the New York Public Library. Permission to
provide the print for the screening came from Jack Willis who owns the
rights. The student is always welcome to come to New York to view the
print here
I kind of figured it came from you Elena. Jean I would suggest you get Mr.
Willis contact info from Elena and ask him if there is any chance VHS or
DVD copy. At least you will be going right to the source and I think this
also confirms that the Worldcat listing that NYPL has a VHS copy was
Dear folks,
Obviously, the best you can do is to borrow a 16mm and a projector or you
can try to get ahold of Jack Willis for permission to master a copy.
However, there's a lot more ways to go about this as well since it's just
for research purposes. This is where it pays to be a member of AMIA.
...and they could always contact Rachael Stoeltje at Indiana University to
see if they have access copies. I would contact Jack only as a last resort
as he is elderly and, from what I've heard, not doing so well.

Just heard from Indiana University: they have a VHS copy that can be ILL'd!
Happy ending for all!

For those of you who license the Master Academic Collection from FMG, do you
dump all of the MARC into your catalog or provide access through the FMG
catalog? Or both?

Alan,
At UT we do both with Films Media Group, Alexander Street Press, and couple of
collections on Kanopy.

Indeed a happy ending.
Not to be greedy but this looks like a wonderful candidate for restoration
and wider availability.

ASU Libraries does both.
We load records for all the titles, plus we provide a direct link into the FoD
interface from a link on the libraries homepage (http://lib.asu.edu) under a
section of most used resources.
I also maintain a Libguide that lists all of our licensed streaming video
We do both.

Dear Deg,
Not sure if you went to see the screening of Mr. Conservative Goldwater on
Goldwater at the ALA, but wanted to make sure that ASU has a copy in it's
library.
Thanks
