Dear deg,

There was a brief moment when Columbia was bringing over great film
directors in a very bold experiment to create art films within the
mainstream studio distribution. This film was one of the results. So Sony
should have it.

It took a while and it's not available, but:

Greetings (CC: VRT  Comm Libs):

In case it is of interest, here is an entertainment trade pub that mentions
the issue in plain language:
http://variety.com/2014/biz/news/new-trade-pact-provokes-concerns-over-hollywoods-influence-1201034738/

As there is consideration for updating the Copyright
Acthttp://www.copyright.gov/regstat/2013/regstat03202013.htmlthere
we are also in the beginning stages of updating the Communications
Act.  I recently joined the ALA subcommittee on telecom and am tracking it
with ALA.
http://www.broadcastingcable.com/news/washington/house-ec-releases-first-communications-law-update-white-paper/128346

As we make the digital shift the laws will be amended -- yet it expected to
be a slow process.

Best,

Cathy

  Dear Fight for the Future member,

 This is important -- and an awesome idea. Please see below an important
 message about the Trans-Pacific Partnership from our allies at OpenMedia.

 Sincerely,
 -Holmes Wilson
 Fight for the Future

 In a matter of weeks over 125,000 citizens from around the world have
 spoken out against the TPP's Internet censorship plan. We now know that
 this remarkable global effort has gotten us the attention of
 decision-makers negotiating the TPP.

 Heads of government from Malaysia, New Zealand, and others are now
 calling for greater transparency and public engagement in the TPP
 negotiations. [1][2][3] This is amazing, and would have never happened
 without your support.

 Now that we have their attention, it's time to let them know what we
 want. We need to create a citizen-led vision for copyright rules that serve
 creativity, innovation, and sharing, not control by Big Media. Be part
 of our crowdsourced visioning 
 processhttp://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/dgA/ZgwNAA/noIUFuxzQ6KdJlBC6KMnfA/h0/ilYeKKH9E-2FEknijw28sC5wScjWipvG9x83yG5mT86jZ-2FW09I-2B5tRTW-2Bgs9u5FfcKu0NnfLM2VEhy-2FKOOtN4qOcoDxgbUEECnjrH07HJH4GXtfekvwne4yi9y7CYPhnZatoday.

 Earlier this year, we asked the Internet community what we should do to
 protect a free and open Internet. We heard loud and clear that it's time to
 start crafting our own community-driven copyright rules -- and that's
 exactly what we've done by creating a cool, easy-to-use drag and drop
 tool,http://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/dgA/ZgwNAA/noIUFuxzQ6KdJlBC6KMnfA/h1/ilYeKKH9E-2FEknijw28sC5wScjWipvG9x83yG5mT86jZ-2FW09I-2B5tRTW-2Bgs9u5FfcKu0NnfLM2VEhy-2FKOOtN4qOcoDxgbUEECnjrH07HJH4GXtfekvwne4yi9y7CYPhnZadrawn
  from your comments and suggestions during the Your Digital Future
 process.

 To add to your voices, we consulted digital access experts, Internet
 innovators and entrepreneurs from several countries to identify the issues
 that will impact our ability to share and collaborate online.

 What we want to create is a Trans-Pacific Partnership of our own - a
 partnership of citizens, creators and innovators looking to share and
 collaborate in the 21st century. But it needs your support to 
 workhttp://list.fightforthefuture.org/mpss/c/dgA/ZgwNAA/noIUFuxzQ6KdJlBC6KMnfA/h2/ilYeKKH9E-2FEknijw28sC5wScjWipvG9x83yG5mT86jZ-2FW09I-2B5tRTW-2Bgs9u5FfcKu0NnfLM2VEhy-2FKOOtN4qOcoDxgbUEECnjrH07HJH4GXtfekvwne4yi9y7CYPhnZa

Ah yes the David Putnam era. I still remember after he got deposed and
complained that Columbia was not releasing a number of great films he had
acquired, the new head of Columbia said something like  He left 10 films,
8 of them in SerbCroatian, Thanks a lot.

Also I checked an the film is not out on DVD anywhere in the world legally
that i can find. Probably a legal mess.

Re: [Videolib] Paramount ceases releasing movies on film

2014-01-30 Thread Elena Rossi-Snook
Hi, Chris,

The big, commercial multiplexes are all digital.  But independent theaters
are either hybrid exhibitors or in the process of fundraising for their DCP
equipment.  An active community of 35mm exhibitors does exist for a number
of reasons: the percentage of films available on DCP is very small and 35mm
offers a different experience from digital (which is actually marketable
and profitable).

Best wishes,

Re: [Videolib] Distributor for DVD of King of the Gypsies?

2014-01-30 Thread Jessica Rosner
Sounds like something WB classic's could easily license for DVD line. They
aggressively get stuff from other studios not interested in their own
libraries.

 The fact that they are on instant video  is weird. It would seem to
 indicate Sony still owns them. I will ask someone there if this is true.

  Does anyone know of a vendor for a DVD of King of the Gypsies?

  Our VHS is worn out.  But new VHS tapes are available on Amazon.
  Amazon also has a DVD, but clearly appears to be bootleg.

  Swank Digital Campus has it for streaming.  We do not need PPR.

  Any leads?

  Thanx to the collective wisdom.

[Videolib] LibraryThing or goodreads

2014-01-30 Thread Ball, James (jmb4aw)
Hi All,

This isn't really a video-specific question, but I was wondering if anyone is 
using goodreads or LibraryThing at your library?  And if you're using 
LibraryThing, are you using their catalog enhancement features?

Cheers,

Matt

Matt, 

I use library thing to track book reviews for an academic journal, but have not 
used it for anything beyond that. The jerwood music library uses library thing 
too .. I follow their site.

But I'm not familiar with the enhancements. Could you tell me a bit more?
