Hi Friday, At Hofstra University streaming media collections are funded solely by the University Library. Some collections are licensed by subscription, some collections we have purchased, many collections/title are available through PDA, and some content is individually licensed.
Hope that helps, Sarah McC From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of 'Friday Valentine' Sent: Thursday, November 10, 2016 5:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Videolib] funding streaming media (in academic libraries) Greetings all, I've been asked to do some research on how other academic libraries fund their streaming media collections (both video and audio). Are you collections... * Paid for through library funds only? * Departments/Disciplines cost share (or do departments/programs/disciplines purchase outright specific titles?) * Shared costs with IT? Distance Ed? Academic Technology? * Supported with Friends/Foundation/Grant money? * Other ideas In the spirit of full disclosure, I am trying to prove the need/good for centralized shared funding and purchasing. Thanks in advance for your reponse(s).

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.
