Hi all,

Has anyone read this article in the Chronicle of Higher Ed,  "Using Video 
Annotations Tools to Teach Film Analysis"? 
http://chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/using-video-annotation-tools-to-teach-film-analysis/57171

This idea is very cool, but I'm confused about the mechanics. Is anyone 
familiar with this tool or know if it's being used on your campus?  Is it 
intended for uploading clips (Fair Use), is it an overlay you can use with 
subscription packages, is it open or password protected?  The only info in the 
article related to licensing was "Perhaps the biggest challenge of using 
SocialBook is that rights to specific films have to be negotiated on an 
individual basis, which means that the cost to individual institutions could 
escalate. "

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.
