Hi All: I'm trying to put together a viable list of vendors who supply streaming video services, either per title (rights only or short-term streaming "rental" service) or in true, online database format.
If possible, please provide: 1) A link to or list of your titles and services for academic libraries (e.g.: ability to generate durable URLs for linking to individual clips or entire films from within course management software such as Blackboard) 2) Annual subscription and one-time purchase models (including package, collection, single title, and title interchangeability options) 3) Access method and technical requirements (e.g.: UN/PW; IP-authenticated site license with unlimited simultaneous users, including remote/off campus access; special hardware/software, etc.) 4) Policies regarding PPR, educational use, and streaming services 5) Policies pertaining to digital rights licensing/clearance with original film producers or rights holders (limited number of years in license or true, "in-perpetuity" models) For all those vendors who have already gotten in touch with me about this from previous posts - many thanks! I greatly appreciate all of the fantastic help and advice I've discovered on this listserv - thanks to all! Lisa 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.
