Dear videolib, There's a nice article in today's New York Times on smaller streaming services:
Diving for Treasure in Less Traveled Seas: Offerings From Boutique Streaming Services http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/05/arts/television/offerings-from-boutique-s treaming-services.html?_r=0 Does anyone know offhand if these streamers are working with the library market, or interested in experimenting, or overlap with the bigger services many of us already use? Acorn TV Dramafever Fandor Vyer Films Warner Archive Instant Crunchyroll I suspect that there is at least some overlap with Acorn and Warner but hope my query can start discussion. Regards, Laura Laura Jenemann Media Services/Film Studies Librarian George Mason University Libraries Email: ljene...@gmu.edu Phone: 703-993-7593 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.
