Greetings all, I've been asked to do some research on how other academic libraries fund their streaming media collections (both video and audio).
Are you collections... - Paid for through library funds only? - Departments/Disciplines cost share (or do departments/programs/disciplines purchase outright specific titles?) - Shared costs with IT? Distance Ed? Academic Technology? - Supported with Friends/Foundation/Grant money? - Other ideas In the spirit of full disclosure, I am trying to prove the need/good for centralized shared funding and purchasing. Thanks in advance for your reponse(s).

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
