Greetings all,

Hello video librarians -

which the video librarians can select and purchase videos and then their
students and faculty can access those videos through log-in based on the

She is willing to let us stream the film over a password-protected site, and

The fact that she is producer/director would NOT mean she has the right to

JoAnn's point is of great concern to all librarians and that is
why National Media Market's portal is such a great idea. It can become a
one-stop place to evaluate new titles. I think from a vendor's point of
view it shows us the importance of making the portal a viable tool for our
clients.
