I get so confused by this - I thought if there was tiered pricing we had to buy the university copy even though it clearly falls under fair use and it won't be used outside the classroom. Someone please tell me I'm wrong and save me $$!

I see no reason that the home video cannot be purchased for that use, unless for reason the "seminar" is outside the realm of a classroom situation....and the university is clearly not a for-profit institution.

Your Information Destination From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Merle J. Slyhoff Sent: Wednesday, May 12, 2010 2:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Videolib] Old topic, new rant... $300.00 for a video for universities and colleges vs $25.00 for a video for home use and one faculty member wants to view it to maybe show to a seminar of 15 students... and I have to say no because I can't fit it into the budget at $300.00. No one will ever convince me that this cost differential is justifiable when it's being used in the classroom for 15 students. OK, said it, no need to reply because I know what you'll all say. :) Merle ******************************************************************* Merle J.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
