[Videolib] Higher Education Digital Video Summit Executive Summary

2010-05-05 Thread Deg Farrelly
On March 26th,  a Higher Education Digital Video Summit was held to discuss the 
present and future of digital video in higher education.

For the executive summary of the Summit, including recommended next steps for 
action, and a couple of pictures from the event, please click on the following 
link:  http://www.west.asu.edu/icdeg/digitalsummit

It was a productive meeting and the "Gang of 7" wants to follow through on the 
recommended steps for action.  Coincidentally other initiatives were launched 
independently of the Summit and appear to address two of the identified Next 
Steps.  They are:

Mellon Foundation grant to ARL to develop "Best Practices in Fair Use"

Indiana University survey on academic libraries plans and practices for 
delivery of Streaming Video (Reported on VideoLib, April 29)

If you have additional ideas or information to share, please contact Jane 
Hutchison ( hutchis...@wpunj.edu )

We look forward to a continuation of the discussion held on the 26th and how we 
can move forward in providing digital video streaming for the higher education 
communities.

James, thank you for  a clear statement of problems using this database.   
While we do not yet subscribe to Film and Television Literature Index it is a

What has been the response from EBSCO regarding these issues?  Do they offer 
any explanations?

From: "Steffen, James M" 
Subject: [Videolib] Problems with Variety Movie Reviews in Film and
Television Literature Index

Dear Colleagues:

I want to bring your attention to some problems that I've identified so far 
with the "Variety Movie Reviews" feature of EbscoHost's Film and Television 
Literature with Full Text database. Have you or your library's users also 
encountered problems with it?


Here are my observations:

Many films that Variety reviewed are not listed at all. Examples include not 
only foreign films such as "The Color of Pomegranates" (reviewed as "Sayat 
Nova" on 6/21/1978) but Hollywood studio productions such as the classic "Baby 
Face" starring Barbara Stanwyck (reviewed 6/27/1933) and "On the Sunny Side" 
(reviewed 2/04/1942).

Most (all?) of the older films incorrectly list January 1 for the review date. 
To give just one example, the record for "Magnificent Obsession" (reviewed 
5/12/1954) lists a date of 1/1/1954. I've spot-checked films from other years, 
ranging from 1932 to 1987, and have found the same problem on a systematic 
basis: they list January 1 regardless of the actual review date. I'm not sure 
what year this problem gets resolved, but by some point in the 1990s it doesn't 
appear to be an issue any more.

Lastly, Ebsco's indexing doesn't link up well between the main database content 
and the "Variety Movie Reviews" feature. The film "Asik Kerib"/"Ashik Kerib" 
(reviewed 9/14/1988) doesn't appear when searched in the "Variety Movie 
Reviews" search interface, but you can find a citation for the review using the 
default "new search" function. I have found quite a few other examples of this, 
also from different years. In other words, the different sections of the Film 
and Television Literature Index aren't talking to each other effectively. I 
think this is a serious problem: if a user is looking for Variety film reviews 
specifically, they will probably search first using the "Variety Movie Reviews" 
button, and they might assume that the citation isn't in the database at all 
when in fact you can find it in a different section.

At any rate, I'd be curious to hear of any experiences you've had with the 
"Variety Movie Reviews" feature specifically or other aspects of Film and 
Television Literature with Full Text.
