At the University of Connecticut this is the process we follow. Since it is 
labor intensive and time consuming we invoke section 108 sparingly.


1.       Determine if the VHS is damaged, deteriorating, lost or stolen.

2.       Document damage, deterioration. This checklist developed by Kenneth 
Crews useful for ensuring i's are dotted and t's are crossed. 
http://copyright.columbia.edu/copyright/files/2009/10/copyrightchecklist108preservation.pdf

3.       If found to be damaged/deteriorating, conduct due diligence search for 
evidence of new VHS or DVD for sale at a reasonable price. We use this 
checklist (Creative Commons license), http://aladinrc.wrlc.org/handle/1961/16025

4.       If no new VHS or DVD is found for sale then a DVD is made from the VHS.

5.       The VHS goes to our archive and does not circulate.

6.       The DVD goes on permanent reserve. The case is clearly marked, 
"Section 108 Copy: In Building Circulation Only. This material was reproduced 
under the provisions of Section 108 of United States Copyright Law and may be 
protected by copyright." "For use at UConn Libraries only. No InterLibrary 
Loan. Does not include public performance rights but may be used in the 
classroom." "Preservation copy of Archival VHS. Not to be used outside of the 
Library."

7.       The catalog record includes this statement, "For Use at UConn 
Libraries only. No Interlibrary Loan. Does not include public performance 
rights but may be used in the classroom." And the permanent location is "Sec108 
Copy (Reserve)". The catalog record for the VHS indicates the location as 
"Sec108 Original (@Dodd)", our archive.

Best,
Jo Ann

Subject: [Videolib] old vhs tapes

Hi all,
We are , like many of you, replacing old VHS tape content with DVDs or 
streaming when possible. What are you doing with the VHS tape?  Keeping it or 
discarding it?  Or putting it on a digital master for safekeeping?
Thanks,
Rhonda

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.
