Take a look at NJVid www.njvid.net<http://www.njvid.net> which has a list of vendors with streaming rights.

This is a helpful start. I know having a central database is a big job but don’t you all want to sell more films and open up new markets? Hopefully the NMM decided that the lovely web page they created for market attendees should be open to the world and not just to attendees.

The third to last column is for database subscriptions. It is two years old but upon a quick glance seems up to date. Jo Ann, I did push for the NMM to create the iTunes type store when I was on the Board but the majority felt it was beyond the NMM mission. After speaking with some of the distributors I concluded many of them would not participate anyway. However, never say never. Circumstances and thinking change. Anything like Summon that would facilitate the process is a great idea. Regards, Bob Robert A. Norris Managing Director Film Ideas, Inc.

For a book there are places you can go and do a single search by title, even for songs it?s easier, but video is like the Tower of Babal, hundreds (thousands?) of websites and no one place to search by title, subject, director, etc. Maybe they could use something like Summon to search all their respective databases. That way they can keep their independence and still be more discoverable.

I believe Monique put together a spreadsheet several years ago that listed distributors offering digital rights, but I don?t see it on the VRT site anymore. If no one has done this, I can get something started. If someone has compiled this info, it would be great to link from the VRT or NMM site. There have been several messages on the listserve lately of folks looking into streaming collections. I think this kind of resource would be of use to them.

For of those of you who already do this, did subscribing to such a database cut down on the number of physical CDs/DVDs you have to purchase for your faculty? Secondly, does anyone have a policy that describes what AV content the library will use its money to provide (through a subscribed streaming package) and what the faculty will need to use their own department's funds to supply?
