Most of the Zipporah films have purchase agreements restricting use to your institution. ILL may be difficult! Good luck. Nell Chenault Research Librarian for Film and Music VCU Libraries 804.828.2070 From: Wochna, Lorraine woc...@ohio.edu To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu

Also with the film retailing for $400, I cannot think that too many institutions would be too willing to want to lend out such an expensive item on ILL. Items sent out on ILL do (occasionally) get lost in the mail, or do not get returned by the patron doing the borrowing, or get damaged

Dumb question. Setting aside the ILL restriction by Zipporah why would the loaning institution not be responsible for the replacement cost? Seems pretty basic to a non librarian unless there was some debate on how the item was lost or damaged. I would hope libraries have a policy of insisting that

Not a dumb question at all. An institution could send back a borrowed damaged VHS tape claiming that it was sent from the lending library that way, which that library adamantly denies. And it goes back and forth in a most unpleasant fashion--especially when it concerns big ticket items. I've

1. When materials are sent out through ILL and something happens to it before it comes home, the borrowing library pays. Period. (You should be worried about what your own patrons are borrowing, not what you're sending out. 2. But Zipporah Films usually have licensing restrictions that include

This would be an interesting case for the reasonable price section of 108. It appears that Zipporah is the one and only legal distributor and that is their price and they do not have it in DVD. No doubt the folks and some institutions would decide they could just dub an old VHS to DVD or buy it

THE COOL WORLD is definitely a copyrighted film and it's solely owned by Frederick Wiseman's ZIPPORAH FILMS. It was his first film and he produced while Shirley Clarke directed. You can email the very capable Karen Konicek there and see if she can do something for you. THE COOL WORLD materials are

I believe you. I am just not so sure about other institutions including the folks you work with on the Carnegie project. Imagine a library that has a VHS now and thinks that it is deteriorating or just not convenient. Using 108 they decide $400 for a VHS is just not reasonable. On Sun, Sep 25,

Oops I cut that off early. They decide the $400 for a VHS is not reasonable so they just digitize it ( and heck in an increasing number of cases stream it too). This is not in my imagination, it is happening everyday in particular with distributors of small , non fiction films. On Sun, Sep 25,
