Hi Folks,
I've had a request to investigate the possibility of duplicating the following
VHS titles as they are no longer being distributed and our VHS copies are
deteriorating. Would anyone know the contacts for the following that I may

Hi All,
Do any of my academic library colleagues have licenses from the Motion
Picture Licensing Corporation? If so, what is its utility in that
setting? I recently learned that my institution has been purchasing
what I think is an annual license from them, and my impression is that
it's un
Hi Christine
My understanding of USCode Section 108 is that if your titles are deteriorating
and unavailable for purchase or streaming in new condition, you can simply make
preservation copies. You don't need to seek permission. There are caveats
(in-library use only, etc.), but you can do it.
All true (though there is no mention of streaming in the law and one rarely can
purchase a stream outright, so I'm not sure it would really qualify as an
unused copy in the same way a tangible item would. Also, it is considered a
"replacement" copy in the language of the law. A "preservation" co

The individual who used to handle reproduction requests is retiring at the end
of the month and the responsibility has been transferred to my department. I've
inherited her documentation which includes an out

I don't believe VHS is considered obsolete yet. The players are readily
available from stores (believe it or not). Here's one example from

definition in Section 108 of US Copyright Law, there are many other ways
for libraries to effectively manage their unique and aging VHS

I have searched for Yellow Earth on DVD with no luck, so we've preserved it on
DVD. The Guangxi studio edition (Fox Lorber released on VHS in in 1988) has
English subtitles.

Has anyone ever ordered one episode of a show to stream in an online

Thanks everyone!
Nice to know I’m not the only one who cannot locate the title.
And thank you Jennifer. I had not heard of those other two sources, the JP
source is sold out and the CH source is not clear whether there would be
subtitles. The Tower VHS is 99$!
Never even thought of Tower Video
