Hello, I've been lurking on this list for a while, but have never posted. I'm the Visual Resources Curator at Pratt Institute and was put in charge of the film and video collection about a year ago.
I'm not sure if such a question is taboo or not, but we are looking to purchase some films that are only available from iranianmovies.com, and I was wondering if anyone who has worked with this vendor in the past would be willing to share their experiences good and bad off list. Also, I was trying to see if it is possible to search the list archives, but I couldn't find an easy way to do this. Thanks a bunch. Johanna +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Johanna Bauman Visual Resources Curator Pratt Institute Libraries 200 Willoughby Avenue Brooklyn, New York 11205 718-687-5745 [email protected] Pratt 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.
