Re: [Videolib] native son 1986 dvd? help

Videolibbers, Thank you for your suggestions. I have contacted the filmmaker. Hey, it’s worth a try. If the faculty insists on this particular film of Native Son, and there are VHS copies available, and I have a player in the library, I don’t think I can make a case to copy the VHS without per

My bet is on a Time/Warner mess up but maybe because I live in NYC. On Tue, Jan 12, 2016 at 3:50 PM, Shelley, Anne wrote: > Hi, > > I checked WMM's Facebook page and they posted on their timeline saying > their phone and e-mail are down right now, so that would explain things! > > Thanks, > > An

Hi, I checked WMM's Facebook page and they posted on their timeline saying their phone and e-mail are down right now, so that would explain things! Thanks, Anne Anne Shelley | Music/Multimedia Librarian | 621A Milner Library, Illinois State University | 309-438-5464 | http://illinoisstate.lib

Re: [Videolib] native son 1986 dvd? help

Hi Lorraine, Just a follow-up note. If the instructor needs this video in a DVD or streaming format, and if none are available in the market, you can contact the copyright holder to request written permission or negotiate a license to convert & use the video in that format. Also request permi

Re: [Videolib] native son 1986 dvd? help

Hi Lorraine, First, I would ask if the faculty is using this for a face-to-face class & for instructional purposes. If so, you can reference this FAQ from the U.S. Copyright Office: http://copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-fairuse.html#movies You can also reference 17 U.S.C. §110(1) for the legal te

Hello, I've been trying to get in touch with someone from Women Make Movies for a couple days. When I call their number I get one of those "we're sorry, your call cannot go through" operator messages; e-mailing has also not been fruitful. If anyone has suggestions for contacting them, I'd be gr

Re: [Videolib] native son 1986 dvd? help

Actually not. 108 is for replacement copies already in a collection and Lorraine's school never had a copy. The idea that one would purchase a used VHS the supposedly "dead" format for the express purpose of making a DVD is not what the law says. In general this just goes to the issue that not eve

Hi all, Welcome to 2016. I'm looking forward to another year of learning from all of you. Let me start here. This Q has come up a few times this year, at least for me. I have a faculty that wants to screen Native Son, 1986 w/ Oprah Winfrey. As far as I can see ONLY a VHS exists. My first Q

Re: [Videolib] Promised Land

It's a fair question, Deg and I wouldn't pretend to speak for all producers/rights holders. However, for BBC titles not already available via our well-known distributors, or directly from our own website, it is a very quick process to check with those same outlets for an understanding on whether o

Re: [Videolib] The Vanishing American (1925)

It is a Paramount silent so Paramount owns it ( note they do not own their films from 1928-48) thus Swank has rights BUT they likely have no clue. The real problem would be that they presumably do not have a digital file that Swank could use and studios do not allow other parties to stream their fi

[Videolib] The Vanishing American (1925)

Hello CW, Does anybody out there have a contact for licensing the 1925 version of The Vanishing American for streaming? It looks like Image Entertainment may be the most recent rights holder for this title. All best, Brian Boling Media Services Librarian Temple University Libraries brian.bol...
