Good afternoon videolib, Although I know the vast majority of this group works in university libraries, I was wondering if any public librarians or others in the know had any insight into the PLA Conference. We have a sizable public library customer base, thanks to our subscription with public performance rights (won't shill on this board, but feel free to email me with questions) and have found it useful to attend ALA so as to reach both public and academic audiences. We've never been to PLA and are curious if anybody here can offer their thoughts on it as a market, as a platform for increased exposure, etc.
Thanks, Maxwell Maxwell Wolkin | Film Movement 109 W 27th St | Ste 9B | New York, NY 10001 p: 212.941.7744x211 | f: 212.941.7812
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.
