On a related note, licensing agreements for online journals, databases and e books often contain language that restricts off-campus access to currently registered students, faculty and staff.
Anyone who is not on campus must sign on to view this material, which is IP filtered. The signons are increasingly tied to students’ personal information (grades, financial aid, etc.) which provides a strong incentive not to share password/user id. InterLibrary loan agreements for these materials are another issue, but may not be relevant to streaming video.

As streaming has become a regular standard at many libraries as a producer/distributer I would like to know the limits of the library to whom to stream. Are there any ALA rulings on this issue?

When we sell a DVD with PPR then its understood that it is for screening at the university, of course anybody that has right to lend can take it home for private home use, but what happens when we also gave streaming rights to the university for use of Faculty & students . If your university library also has registered patrons, Emeritus? Alumni? Just neighbors in the community? Moved away a 1000 miles?

Most licenses require libraries to restrict access to currently enrolled students and employed faculty and staff. If you offer access, is this something you arrange with the vendor by modifying licenses, or do you consider emeritus to be still "employed by your institution"? Do you have a policy online regarding emeritus privileges? If there is interest, I can summarize the results for the list. -Francesca ___________________ Francesca Lane Rasmus Director for Library Services Mortvedt Library Pacific Lutheran University Tacoma, WA 98447 253.535.7141 [email protected]
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.
