Rhonda and all, Deg and Jo Ann's process is similar to the one that I am researching at GMU now.
As part of the research process, I have compiled different 500 notes for expressing Sec. 108 conversion. If anyone is interested in this list, let me know. Additionally, compiling a public site on ALA Connect about our best practices on Sec. 108 is a project that I have been hoping to start up. It would be simple: just needs someone to do the data entry and create the links. If anyone is interested in developing a Sec. 108 best practices links list, please contact me so we can discuss! Rhonda: I will email you separately with more information.

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.

What are you doing with the VHS tape? Keeping it or discarding it? Or putting it on a digital master for safekeeping? Thanks, Rhonda Rhonda Rosen| Circulation Services Librarian William H.

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.
