We review ILL requests for film for several reasons: do we have upcoming showings and also for licensing and rights issues. If we have a license which precludes ILL, we make a not in the bib record. There are also many vendors who only have the terms on their website ... and we try to honor those as well. Whether they are legally binding may depend on how they manage sales ... and whether you live in a UCITA state (VA and MD passed UCITA) so that click through licenses apply.

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.
