Jo Ann - Coincidentally, the planning board of the National Media Market had decided to make the Preview Portal freely available through the end of October even if you weren't able to attend last year's Market. Go to http://nmm-previewportal.net/ to create a guest account.
You will also start finding links to the Preview Portal from some reviews in Educational Media Reviews Online. http://emro.lib.buffalo.edu/emro/ The exhibiting partners have been encouraged to load 10 minute clips, to give you a better feel for the film content than you get from a teaser clip. Vendor specs include information about availability of streaming video option. Try it out, let us know what you think. Librarians registered for the 2013 NMM will receive access to the Preview Portal until the next market in 2014.

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.
