Hey Gail
I'd say yeah, definitely, unless FU is trumped by specific contractual
language which forbids certain uses (I've haven't seen any such language
so far--at least in the licenses we've signed). Even if the contract DID
somehow short-circuit fair uses (i.e. clips for use in course-related
projects), my guess is that it wouldn't stand up in court.

Is an institution's licensed video streaming content covered by fair use
for said institution's students who want to use guideline compliant
portions of that content for fair use compliant purposes? I want to say
yes, but hesitate to do so without input from the collective wisdom. I
don't remember prior discussion concerning this permutation of fair use.
Thanks in advance,
Gail

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.
