Hello all, A professor wants to sponsor a public showing of Barbara Ettinger's "Two Square Miles."
Our library has a 95-minute DVD, purchased in 2007 from Niiji Films for $19.95. At that price, I rather doubt that it has public performance rights. I found that Filmakers Library sells a DVD with the same title and director, for $295, which would include PPR; but their version is only 52 minutes. To get a licensed version, we could buy or rent the short version from Filmakers Library. However, if the professor insists on showing the 95-minute version, does anyone know where I can get info about licensing our library's DVD? Thanks in advance, Marilyn Huntley -- Marilyn B.

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.
