Re: [Videolib] Looking for DVD copy of "The I. Q. Myth

Carousel Films has been out of business for over a decade, with the death of the distribution company owners. Some of the material for this documentary was part of a 1974 (?) CBS 60 minutes. You can try CBS or the CBS News Archive. WorldCat has a few DVD copies. At least one of these appears to

[Videolib] Roku circulation

Hi all, I noticed an article in a nearby public library's monthly newspaper (I won't mention which one) with the headline "Roku: A new way to borrow movies." The idea is to circulate Roku sticks that have access to a Vudu account (transactional digital video service similar to purchasing a movi

Re: [Videolib] Roku circulation

I hadn't heard of Overdrive being involved - that would make sense and be less questionable. Does Hoopla provide any such option for viewing? ~Barb On Jul 1, 2015, at 6:09 PM, Randy Pitman mailto:vid...@videolibrarian.com>> wrote: Hi Andy, Good points. If this is, in fact, the OverDrive Roku

Re: [Videolib] Roku circulation

There has been talk about an OverDrive Roku channel, but I just read that as of Jan 2015 no firm release date was announced. So, this is something else. The question of whether or not Ultraviolet constitutes the creation of an additional copy is very interesting. I’m assuming that libraries are
