Thanks, all, for the ideas and input!  And yes, I do understand
that there are different rights complications depending on whether
or not Amazon / Netflix has produced the content or not.  I do
realize this is a tall order and may not (or may not be likely to)
result in DVD availability.  But from what I've gathered so far,
raising awareness of the fact that these companies (and the
content producers, in cases where they are not the distributors)
are leaving money on the table and prohibiting content from being
seen in certain environments is the first hurdle, so crafting some
kind of statement in this area with a goal towards publicizing it
seems like a good place to start.

I agree that a conference call could be useful to begin the
process, and would be available for one next week or the week
after, in case it takes some time to pull together.  Meredith, are
you able to facilitate?  I could help with the scheduling by
putting together a Doodle poll that folks could use to indicate
interest and availability; just let me know.

An interesting idea from Elizabeth at Bullfrog Films is that we
could provide examples of several of the companies who regularly
work with educational rights (as Mat described) who could serve as
models / references for the process in the case of those film and
/ or music producers who are simply unaware and don't know where
to start.

I love this idea! I've been pursuing this on individual basis
with both Netflix and Amazon. My argument has been that this type
of licensing is another potential revenue stream that they are
not considering. I think there is a general misunderstanding
about the educational licensing market and the value that it has
- so I think educating them on who we are and why we are
important is crucial.
I'm happy to dive into this! I think it would be good to discuss
strategy first. Is anyone interested in a conference call early
next week?

[meredith miller]

Lorraine/Mo,

Great! I will definitely be there and could help facilitate in person. I'm
not sure what the rules are regarding the person who has to submit, but I
think it probably makes sense for you to do it. Let me know if you need
anything from me!

Thanks!

I was thinking the same thing, but there may, or may not be some red-tape 
affiliated with its showing at ALA.

Someone will need to be there with a Netflix account to gain access.

But, what the hay, submit and see what happens!

Re: [Videolib] Now Showing @ ALA Film Program - ALA Midwinter in Atlanta

I think VRT should most definitely screen something Lorraine!

It's way past midnight in Los Angeles, and this might be a sleep-deprived
idea - but in light of our recent conversations sparked by 13th, combined
with the revolutionary decision by Netflix and DuVernay to allow free
public screenings of the film - maybe VRT should submit it. Even though
it's widely available on Netflix, it could draw a good crowd and we could
have a lil' Q afterwards informed by our upcoming conference call on
educational availability of Netflix/Amazon titles, among other things.

Is this crazy or what?

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.
