Ironically many of their wilder claims re fair use appear to be gone from

Well, actually Jessica, it's the times you did't get worked up that are so
memorable ;-) However, I jest.
The funny thing is that there are continuous stories of how restrictive fair
use has become but since the dawn of video and now the internet, there is
far greater use of copyrighted material
so, it's okay for librarians to act as the middleman for fair use,
that is, a third-party can make copies for the end-user who is
actually doing the research or scholarship?

In the example below, the researcher asks the library to provide the clip. To
do this, the library becomes directly involved with the research's personal
Fair Use assessment. So, a few questions for the group -
* Does your library provide a clip creation service? If so, does library staff
I don't see why not.
