Hello Tyra Grant, You may want to look at the listings in the Amazon.com marketplace:

Multizone DVD. For private use only. EDV 1393 ISBN 10: 3-905770-09-1 ISBN 13: 978-3-905770-09-4 "Four Short Films 1972-1973" itself, as a single DVD, does not seem to be available in any format. An American company, Electronic Arts Intermix http://www.eai.org/title.htm?id=14628 sells DVDs on Baldessari in an NTSC format (which we would prefer) but the Educational version is expensive. To get all that were originally on the Paris DVD (3 different films) would cost us $1000. QUESTIONS: 1. Does anyone know of alternative sources for this work? 2. Is there anything that would limit our creating a copy from our damaged version---if we cannot find a reasonably affordable replacement? I must confess I'm ignorant of French or international copyright laws---if or how they apply in cases like this. Best, and hope you're all surviving the heat, Tyra Grant Digital and electronic media preservation officer University of Kansas Libraries tgr...@ku.edu<mailto:tgr...@ku.edu> 785-864-8951
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.
