There's /The Price of Sugar/, which won a spot on our Notables list last
year (2009). Great film, though controversial to the point of
litigation. From the website's 'About' section:
In the Dominican Republic, a tropical island-nation, tourists flock to

Filmakers Library has many excellent films on Haiti. (Click on titles for full
descriptions.)
Failing Haiti
Haiti is a nation caught in a tragic, downward spiral. Its economy is broken,
its land denuded, and its children hungry. Combining vivid footage with
interviews of a wide
Oh ye of little faith!
I know Gigi and the gang at Public Knowledge, and I would not
underestimate their strategic positioning or energetic lobbying. They
do know how to get things done in Dee Cee.
In fact, I already wrote them a note to encourage them to add Section
108 issues to their list,
Less than little faith...read my lips: MPAA, AAP...billions of lobbyist

The results of the 108 Study group (and orphan works legislation) have
convinced me that working with what we have may be our best option. It seems to
me like any copyright reform is likely to result in gains for corporate
copyright holders and losses for users.

Anyone out there on Collib-l? If so, you might want to tune into a
conversation going on over there re: converting VHS to DVD without
adherence to copyright. Here's the last bit I received from someone who
appears to be advocating flouting copyright law just because it is
inconvenient /
The Librarian of Congress hasn't even agreed to changing DMCA
circumvention prohibitions...unlikely LC is gonna go to the mat for such
radical copyright changes...too much big money in the other camp.

I'm not so sure it's such a lost cause. The Library of Congress has
already weighed
Wow...
I wonder if this is the same discussion that stared today on the Digital

Thank you, Jessica,

and tried to contact another company listed as their distribution
site but it's been 3 weeks without a response.
Take care, Patti

So do you think it would be permissible under the 'license' wording
below, to buy a home dvd and then only let it be checked out for use
at home? Or because we don't need public exhibition rights for
private in-library viewing or under TEACH, can a library disregard
