Hi All, Mike Eyler from Swank got in touch with me and suggested that I email Andrea Downing at PBS, who then put me in touch with Jon Luippold (wjluipp...@pbs.org]), who then pointed me to the PBS shop website for educational media: http://teacher.shop.pbs.org/home/index.jsp. The terms for these videos are:
"Limited public performance rights are included with videos designated as AV or Indexed. These videos may be shown in a classroom or screened by a public group, for educational purposes, when no admission is charged for the viewing. These programs may be transmitted on a closed-circuit system within a building or single campus. Your purchase does not permit you to duplicate or alter the program for any purpose, to distribute the program through any wide access network (internet, open cable, open broadcast, LAN, satellite, telco, etc.), or to digitize, encode and/or place the program on a digital server." Thanks Mike and Jon. Cheers, Matt ______________________________ Matt Ball Media and Collections Librarian Clemons Library University of Virginia mattb...@virginia.edu 434-924-3812
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.
