Hello all, I know most of you are librarians in a University setting, but I have a question about educational media that is used in a K-12 classroom environment.
We just realized that a company that markets educational materials to K-12 teachers is selling a HOME DVD to be used in the classroom (for the much lower price of $30). Based on what I know about educational rights and materials, this appears to be wrong. Don't they have to sell the K-12 educational version to teachers (if they are distinctly marketing the materials to be used IN the classroom)? I would love your thoughts and/or suggestions of resources where I can find out more about this. Thanks so much! Kristin 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.
