Re: [Videolib] Wholesalers used by academic librarians?
I reiterate what Randal and Helen wrote - that mirrors my experience exactly. As an experiment, I recently sent a request to a vendor who specializes in locating hard-to-find items. As it played out, the vendor took the same path that I had previously taken, including directing me to a website that I knew was bogus. Thanks for nothing Karen G.

They snagged an academic acquisitions person who had a lot of media expertise and began a high-pressure marketing effort for this service. Just to be nice, I tried them for something I was having trouble finding. When they couldn't find it either, they canceled the order. At that point, I devoted some time to the problem and found it myself. Why would I use a vendor when I can do better than they can? It might save time out of my day, but it would not get the videos in our door any faster. Since vendors could not possibly stock all videos from every production company, it would undoubtedly take longer than it would take me: the presence of a middleman would require additional time for the order to be filled.

[Videolib] Educational PPR

[Videolib] Mein Krieg DVD
Colleagues, I'm searching for a DVD of Mein Krieg (written and directed by Harriet Eder and Thomas Kufus). It was released by Kino on Video in 2000 but apparently is out of print. Four third-party sellers are offering it on Amazon, but the price is prohibitive (almost $300 for a new copy, and three used starting at $123 - yikes). Does anyone have a suggestion? I did get a hit for an online source called germanwarfilms.com but that site appears to be far from legit. We have a VHS copy in our collection, but it's wearing out.
