Sounds like you wouldn't be using these for "institutional usage" as defined in the "license" so I would say you are ok. The additional money seems to be for face to face public performance rights. mb

Or because we don't need "public exhibition rights" for private in-library viewing or under TEACH, can a library disregard the need to purchase at the institutional price? ($25 vs. $100) "Home DVDs are licensed for private home viewing only. Institutional DVDs include full in-house public exhibition rights. These are DVDs for schools, museums, etc. Home DVD orders placed for institutional usage are subject to cancellation."
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.
