Hello All,
Anyone have theirs at the tip of their fingers, easily shared? I'm
especially interested in academic libraries.

Your point about enhancements is similar to textbook enhancements -
CD-Roms, workbooks etc. Here is a link to the Government Accounting
Office's report about the tripling of textbook prices:

I should have mentioned that. Yes, there is usually an out opt, but you are
basically opting out of the marketing for that one documentary (sometimes for a
production company), making it fairly futile.
Mostly curiosity on my part...

I see what you mean. If your name is on a commercial list , you would need
to find the source. I would suggest emailing one of the companies you get an
email from and directly asking them to inform the list provider to remove
you. I have used a bought list and when I get a request for removal I
I'm guessing that many marketers / distributors create their own lists
based on listserv postings or by searching media library websites. I

I've seen several collection development policies that are quite detailed and
specific. I hope that some of them will get posted here. Mine is a bit less
specific but should give you a sense of how I go about making purchasing

Since library-related junk mail and emails started pouring in at my home and
office immediately after I joined ALA, it's fairly obvious to me who sold what

Hi all
Just came across something sort of odd. I notice that Films Media is
selling streaming licenses for a number of public domain films that are
available absolutely free on the Internet Moving Image Archive. This
doesn't seem right to me.
Maybe our friends at Films.com can elaborate?
Gary
That's funny. ALA may have changed but in the past they never had or sold a
list for AV/Media. You could buy a list of librarians interested in China
Women's studies etc, but no AV. They definitely sell lists and yes you
would never get off it.

With almost no exception, DVD enhancements, supplements, add-ons, bonuses,

I think the big enhancement is the format itself. If you bought the film
in VHS and it comes out in DVD, HD, Blu-Ray etc, you do not have to buy it.
You could still use the VHS, but somebody spent a lot of money to remaster
it and get it out in digital format. Also $100 Vs $395 is rather a false

Hi Everyone,
We have a faculty member looking for the title, Death March to De Soto as
our copy is just about dead, at least audibly. The catalog record says it
was released in 1998 - though I believe this is likely in fact the same
program originally broadcasted on The Learning Channel in 1993.

We've looked around for a copy of Keep Cool (Zhang Yimou) with English
