Most of the Zipporah films have purchase agreements restricting use to
your institution. ILL may be difficult!
Good luck.

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

a DVD as soon as I had hoped.

HI all,
I am looking for Shirley Clarke's Cool World for purchase.
I can get it here: http://shop.vendio.com/HARDTOFINDFILMS/
But not sure if it is legit (I feel certain it is not).
I see Zipporah has it on VHS for $400 (that's all) and it
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.

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.
