A belated happy new year to everyone...
A week or two ago, there was a title question regarding nurses in film. This
morning, I received an inquiry from a nursing instructor looking for a video
related to generational differences in the workplace. I think she's looking
for something general
I have a professor teaching a new course, Bioethics, Faith, and Public
Policy. She has asked me to locate introductory videos on Bioethics, and
also videos on cloning, stem cells, genetic engineering (especially of
embryos and children with disabilities--should they be aborted?), and
euthanasia.
How about the documentary on euthanasia How to Die in Oregon.

Hi there,
We are moving Magills Cinema Annual from Reference to Stacks.
Then I was asked if we really needed it.
Are you all receiving this as well for your collections?
I can't determine if it continues to be a necessary and relevant source, what
with online and all.
Feedback is welcome.
Thank
FFH carries Cancer Cell Research: The Way of All Flesh. This is the original
BBC documentary about Henrietta Lacks. We found this one to be an excellent
conversation starter.

Hi Rhonda,
As you guessed, there are quite a few Fanlight Icarus titles that might be
of interest. You can browse the Icarus bioethics subject page here
http://icarusfilms.com/subjects/bioethic.html , and the Fanlight issues
ethics page here
We still get Magills. We have it in Reference and it's used a lot by
students doing research and assignments on films. Right now, we have no
plans to stop carrying it.

Tempe,
I'm having a What the...? reaction to this. I'm all for saving money, but if
the only consideration is is it available online for free? this is incredibly
shortsighted.
Sometimes you only need onetime access so these options might be just fine, but
what about films that will be used for years?
