Hi Christine My understanding of USCode Section 108 is that if your titles are deteriorating and unavailable for purchase or streaming in new condition, you can simply make preservation copies. You don't need to seek permission. There are caveats (in-library use only, etc.), but you can do it.

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.
