We needed to replace a single volume in our copy of Dancing as well.
When I could not find it available for purchase, I contacted Grauer directly.
She expressed disappointment that the series was out of distribution, and
offered to duplicate the episode, on DVD, for us.
Unfortunately, we never
No.

The First Sale Doctrine does not give ANYONE the right to transfer from
one format to another. It does allow the faculty person to donate a LEGAL
copy of a copyrighted work to the library (or to re-sell it, rent it,

I found this segment of Dancing plus one other listed on the website of
Middlemarch Films. They don't seem to sell their own stuff but maybe they could

I'm posting for our Music and Dance Library: they are seeking a DVD

only volume 7, an annual favorite of one faculty member, needs
replacing.
