Hi Deg,
I can speak to RCL, as I am the editor responsible for the film section -
noting that discipline specific documentaries and educational films are covered
by their respective disciplinary editors.
RCL lists books about film/video/media, but does not currently include lists of
actual film/video/media. They've talked about adding DVDs (or other formats),
but as yet have not moved on the idea.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Subject: [Videolib] ACRL and CHOICE seek peer reviewers for core bibliography
Does anyone on the list have access to this database?
To what degree does it cover film/video/media? If at all.
Appreciate comments on RCL sent to the list.
Thanx.

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.
