Re: [Videolib] film about lawyers careers

[Kankiewicz, Michael]

_You Have the Right to an Attorney_

You Have the Right To an Attorney is a documentary short profiling public 
defenders of the South Bronx. Young and idealistic, they struggle on a daily 
basis to serve a never-ending tide of court-bound clients while hoping that 
their work might affect broader change in a system they consider broken.

Subject: [Videolib] film about lawyers careers

Hello,

I was wondering if you could provide me with suggestions for a film or 
documentary about lawyers which illustrates the challenges/consequences of a 
career in law.  This film will be shown to our law students. 

Thanks,

Re: [Videolib] DVD Region Problems

[Kankiewicz, Michael]

Hi All,

How do you handle situations when a professor wants a foreign language film 
that is only available in a non-US region format?
Do you purchase the item and warn the professor of how the item will likely not 
play on standard players, but that it would be possible to play on a computer 
after switching regions?
Would it be illegal to make one copy of the film that is region-free or region 
1 for ease of student use and destroy or lock away the original? If you have 
done this, how did you do it?

You can reply off list if you like to achad...@highpoint.edu

Thank you for any insight you may have.

Amy Chadwell



Amy and all,

We do not make copies or recommend they change the region on their computer.  
Rather, we recommend they download the free VLC Media Player.  It will play 
most anything.

Re: [Videolib] Copyright and making DVD copy of Eyes on the Prize II

[Kankiewicz, Michael]

EOTP I was released as a 3 Disc set.  Then EOTP I & II was released together as 
a 7 Disc set.  AFAIK, EOTP II was never released as a separate DVD set.  So if 
you already have I on DVD, you have to buy the full set to get II.

HI Jared,

This does not directly address the copyright question, but I think the Eyes on 
the Prize DVD series actually combines both parts one and two - at least our 
set does. It is listed as 14 hours and I believe the first series was 6 and the 
second series was 8, so it should include both. So, it was released on DVD at 
some point.

Hope that is helpful...

Video Lib Friends,

Please direct me to a good source or give me some information on this.  We have 
the VHS version of "Eyes on the Prize II."  From what we can determine thus 
far, there is no DVD version of this particular title.  Apparently licensing 
issues have kept "Eyes on the Prize II" from being translated into DVD. Eyes on 
the Prize I was translated into DVD in 2006 and is available for purchase from 
DVD.

So, since this is not available in DVD... and since our VHS tapes are starting 
to show wear, I "thought" that it might be a legal candidate for converting a 
copy to DVD for our faculty to use. ...especially since our IT department is 
pulling all VHS players and equipment out of our classrooms.  They will no 
longer support this format.

Our tech services librarian head says that his is NOT the case and quotes 
"copyright expert" Lolly Gasaway as saying, " .

"There is no permission for libraries to convert format as long as the 
equipment for using VHS is still being manufactured or is still reasonably 
available." (This quote comes from her book, Copyright Questions and Answers 
for Information Professionals in press from Purdue University Press, due out in 
November).

So, does anyone out there have any insights into this?  If this title is never 
converted to DVD, may we not make an archival copy until literally our last VHS 
machine dies?

Thanks for the input.

Jessica,

Yes, you've hit every nail on the head in terms of my concerns. There's nothing 
I'd disagree with in your reply and I hope you didn't think I was trying to get 
around the issue. I was more looking for something authoritative I could send 
to the professor other than the Librarian's word as we do not yet have official 
course reserve guidelines explicitly spelled out for me to easily point to. As 
for acquiring a region 2 player, I've brought it up a few times without getting 
much traction although it's probably been due to the fact that the VAST 
majority of required titles we use can be had as region 1 discs. Having said 
that, the school is poised to move into a brand new facility in the next couple 
of months which sounds like the perfect time to me to try to get at least one 
multi-region player we can use. Anyway, thanks for the reply. Best regards.

Josh

A video that no one can watch might as well not exist.  I would rather have a

Also, it's just a matter of time before VHS is an official obsolete format and
