The prohibition on off-site lending of digital
replacement copies
should
be modified so that if the library¹s or archives¹ original copy of a work
is
in a physical digital medium that can lawfully be lent off-site, then it
may
also lend for off-site use any replacement copy reproduced in the same or
equivalent physical digital medium, with technological protection mea-
sures equivalent to those applied to the original (if any).

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.
