He seems to think none of them are the 'right' one. I'm thinking Kino is the way to go - but your input would be appreciated: The Birth of a nation [videorecording] / D.W. Griffith New York, N.Y. : Kino Video, c1993 The birth of a nation [videorecording] / David W. Griffith Corporation Chatsworth, Calif. : Image Entertainment, 1998 The birth of a nation [videorecording] / D.W. Griffith presents ; produced under the direction of D.W. Griffith ; story arranged by D.W. Griffith and Frank E. Woods Kino on Video, c1992 The birth of a nation [videorecording] / produced under the direction of D.W. Griffith Los Angeles, Calif. : Delta Entertainment Corp., c2004 The Birth of a Nation, by Henry B.

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.
