[Videolib] Title suggestions: Generational differences in the workplace?
A belated happy new year to everyone... A week or two ago, there was a title question regarding nurses in film. This morning, I received an inquiry from a nursing instructor looking for a video related to generational differences in the workplace. I think she's looking for something general and not specific to the medical field because she said she once used Generations at Work. A title search on World Cat revealed nothing titled Generations at Work but it did provide a number of alternative titles. Before I look into purchasing something, I'm wondering if anyone in the community has any specific recommendations. Any insight would be much appreciated.

[Videolib] help needed
I have a professor teaching a new course, Bioethics, Faith, and Public Policy. She has asked me to locate introductory videos on Bioethics, and also videos on cloning, stem cells, genetic engineering (especially of embryos and children with disabilities--should they be aborted?), and euthanasia. They can be scientific in orientation, this is fine. If any video resources are available on these subjects that also discuss the topic from a religious perspective, I would be interested in those too. We have Whither Biogenetics, but it is only 26 minutes. On embryos and children with disabilities, we have Who Should Decide, but it is 15 minutes in duration. On cloning, we have a 31 minute film entitled Cloning, and After Darwin, but they sound a little dated. I know that Icarus Films has acquired the Fanlight titles and that Films for the Humanities and Sciences has quite a few but just want to hear if anyone has strong opinions on one film over another. Any and all suggestions welcomed.

[Videolib] Magills Cinema Annual - keep or discard?
Hi there, We are moving Magills Cinema Annual from Reference to Stacks. Then I was asked if we really needed it. Are you all receiving this as well for your collections? I can't determine if it continues to be a necessary and relevant source, what with online and all. Feedback is welcome.

Re: [Videolib] help needed
Hi Rhonda, As you guessed, there are quite a few Fanlight Icarus titles that might be of interest. You can browse the Icarus bioethics subject page here http://icarusfilms.com/subjects/bioethic.html , and the Fanlight issues ethics page here http://www.fanlight.com/catalog/subjects/dilemmas.php . In particular, I'd suggest taking a look at: ALL IN ONE BASKET http://www.fanlight.com/catalog/films/443_aiob.php Follows three women through the process of paid egg donation, to explore ethical questions about the use of hormones, genetic selection for preferred physical traits, the role of money in reproductive medicine, and informed consent. THE BURDEN OF KNOWLEDGE http://www.fanlight.com/catalog/films/260_bok.php Seven couples, healthcare and genetic specialists, and others explore the ethical and emotional implications of prenatal testing for genetic defects DEATH ON REQUEST http://icarusfilms.com/cat97/a-e/death_on.html Controversial documentary records the last days - and actual death - of a Dutch man who chose euthanasia to end his suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.\ DREAMS AND DILEMMAS http://www.fanlight.com/catalog/films/251_dad.php Follows a couple and their premature twins during six months in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, as it explores ethical dilemmas raised by advances in neonatal medicine. EXIT: THE RIGHT TO DIE http://icarusfilms.com/new2006/exit.html Profiles the EXIT organization, which for over twenty years has counseled and accompanied the terminally-ill and severely handicapped towards a death of their choice. A FATE WORSE THAN DEATH? http://www.fanlight.com/catalog/films/076_afwtd.php Families and caregivers confront the heartrending decision of whether to withdraw artificial life supports from loved ones in a coma or vegetative state. MADEMOISELLE AND THE DOCTOR http://icarusfilms.com/new2005/made.html Lisette Nigot seems an unlikely candidate for euthanasia. At 79, she is in good health, feels no pain, and does not seem depressed. But she says she sees no reason to continue living. And Dr. Philip Nitschke is willing to help her. TRACKED DOWN BY OUR GENES http://icarusfilms.com/new2008/gene.html Explores the new possibilities and dangers created by the Human Genome Project's decoding of human DNA. Let me know if you have any questions.

Re: [Videolib] No DVD if its Streaming policy
I'm having a What the...? reaction to this. I'm all for saving money, but if the only consideration is is it available online for free? this is incredibly shortsighted. Sometimes you only need onetime access so these options might be just fine, but what about films that will be used for years? Hulu changes content constantly and includes advertising. Netflix streaming and Amazon instant video offerings also change frequently nor are they free. Many things get posted to YouTube that aren't supposed to be there. Sure you can watch that documentary on Snagfilms - if you don't mind a lot of advertising. There is some good material on stable platforms (PBS, Annenberg, etc) but those can change too. Looking at whether to purchase a streaming license rather than the DVD is important, but licensed streaming is very different than can we find it on YouTube? Comparing to journal databases -- ERIC documents are (were) freely available from http://eric.ed.gov, but we pay for the added value of the indexing from EBSCO and ProQuest. p.s. Since you're in Charleston, plan to attend the National Media Market when it's held there in November. http://www.nmm.net/ Barb Bergman | Media Services Interlibrary Loan Librarian | Minnesota State University, Mankato | (507) 389-5945 | barbara.berg...@mnsu.edu 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.
