Hi Anna, Have you considered a PDA plan making Criterion titles available via one of the streaming platforms? That way you only pay for what gets used …

Soooo....my standing order for all Criterion Collection films has been cut, as has my film budget. Now I'm faced with the quandary: should I continue to purchase all CC films to acquire the remastered prints and bonus features, even if we already have an older DVD version in our collection? Any thoughts on pros and cons? I'm hesitant to order a duplicate film even if it has been remastered (we have a film minor program but not major) as I have to cut spending somewhere.... Thanks for your insight! [Image removed by sender.

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.
