We are proposing a new film discussion series - cross disciplinary - bringing speakers/faculty from diverse programs to discuss a film.
Example: Interstellar. a physics professor may discuss science of space travel, environmental science food issues, or women's studies discuss changing role of women and father-daughrer relations. But... my question, what is the current trend for academic and community participation in such events? What is currently happening at your library, school or university? What helps with success of this type of event for your organization or community? What are your attendance trends? Can any of you share a current successful series? Thanks!

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.
