One summer I opened up video loaning to ILL and found it took up a heck of a lot of staff time (there are 2 of us), plus titles that were on loan for two weeks (one week to keep, one week for shipping to and from institutions) almost never came back in less than a month. It seems that most everyone's ILL department is understaffed so it wasn't necessarily a question of patrons not returning items on time but ILL folks not being able to keep to a tight turnaround. I decided that during the fall and spring semesters, I couldn't have our material out for that long. I, and I'm sure many others, do loan on a case-by-case basis when contacted directly by patrons or library staff.

Re: [Videolib] ILL of Video: Was Hannah Arendt
We loan, since we borrow! Our lending is limited to academic institutions. We review all requests for the following criteria, which we do not loan: 1. Regular or heavy use for classes. 2. Titles for which we are rare on OCLC (5), although we will negotiate access for scholars. 3. License or purchase limits loaning. If a title is $200, we ask that the borrower insure delivery/shipping. We do assume that many will be overdue; we lend for 3 weeks. We occasionally have to recall items. Recently, about 5% DVD's are returned with either damage to the case or cracked disks due to damage in shipping. We have also had 2 damaged video cases within the last year. This reminds me of the old Samsonite commercial with apes throwing luggage! We ship in rigid cardboard wrap, but many institutions return them in flimsy envelopes!

Re: [Videolib] ILL of Video: Was Hannah Arendt
For about a year UW Seattle has been loaning videos to libraries in the US and Canada with the following restrictions: the item must be accessed in the borrowing library only and for no more than 3 days. When a request comes through for a title that is unique or rare (out of distribution and owned by fewer than 5 WCL), we make a backup copy before lending. When the item is returned we delete the back up copy, usually. Before we started lending we were concerned about damage and loss, but so far we have had only one item damaged. I look forward to having more academic libraries lend their videos via ILL! - John _ John Vallier Head, Distributed Media UW Libraries Media Center http://lib.washington.edu/media 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.

Re: [Videolib] ILL of Video: Was Hannah Arendt
I've often seen cost of the video used as a reason for excluding it from ILL. This is faulty logic because if something happens to the item, the borrowing library pays. Not the lender who owns the item. This is an important principle of ILL that I've found that many librarians don't know. Therefore, it's your own patrons that you need to worry about when it comes to lost damaged materials. Or more often, it's the shipping does things in -- We just paid for a book that we had returned, but was received in 2 pieces (thanks postal service).

I am wondering if anyone on the list has any ideas about how to acquire this film, preferably as a DVD. There are YouTube clips of the entire film but I don't know if they are legitimate. The films web site does not have much information. PBS told me they wanted to get the rights to broadcast it and hopefully sell the DVD.
