Hi Anthony: My colleagues and I are doing it right now – the bulk of the list is in the database already – licensed and ready to go! According to the Alexander Street rep, many of the titles not already in the database are either in the works or on the horizon.
Thanks to this listserv – and the great help I’ve gotten from everyone – I’ve saved a whole lot of time/labor! Happy Holidays to All!!! Lisa M.

Have you checked to see if any of these titles might be available through Alexander Street's Dance in Video? Cheers, Anthony Anderson ******************************* Anthony E.

We have some of these in DVD format and we have been asked to find out if they can be streamed, in their entirety, to students enrolled in the online courses. Some were quite difficult to track down when we initially ordered them and came with no streaming rights. Some of the vendors we contacted advised that they did not provide licensing for streaming the film content; some do and we are going to try to obtain the streaming license/permissions for those titles. We’re trying to develop a workable strategy to contact producers for any titles that are now out of print and/or have now become more difficult to find. Any advice/suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lisa Borden FILM LIST: Merce cunningham. Atlas, C., Blum, S., Glass, P., Lacy, S., Mestre, I., Cunningham, M., . . .

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.
