And the earth will now come off its axis as I agree. I keep trying to get this across to distributors and libraries as well. The "Face to Face" exemption of section 110 is the wonderful and very specific right to show films in a class. It has clear parameters and like Dennis and others I would strongly suggest sending the actual wording to any company that claims you can not show a legally purchased film in a class. It is rarely confused with 108 but often confused with 107 which covers "fair use" which of course is entirely different topic. "Face to Face" is unequivocal in allowing legal copies to be used in an actual class that meet the specific requirements. I admit I was kind of snarky to a poor HS teacher years ago who called and asked me what they needed to do to show THE BELLE OF AMHERST( which was a title I handled at the time) in a class? I replied , "put he VHS ( yes it was that long ago) in the machine and press play".

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.
