Thanks Sarah Andrews For your information. I would like to get your and other librarians opinion on streaming
As streaming Films is a new way to distribute films, and I would like to have our films also streamed and in the future also start streaming, as a distributer I would like to understand some points: 1) What do you mean by a password protected server, 2) Who gets the password and can use the server? Only Students & faculty, or also Alumni, or anybody that asked your library for a password 3) Did the distributer that sold you public screening rights ask extra for a license with streaming rights?

It is searchable in our catalog. Here is an example from Boyhood Shadows: "Includes public performance rights, including video streaming rights on University of Iowa password protected server. IaU " We also include a paper copy of the license agreement in the box whenever possible-helps the end users see what we have agreed to. At least some of our librarians promote this use to student groups-especially underfunded ones that need programming ideas. Sarah Andrews
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.
