Aloha List Mates, Our VHS copy of a 1983 NOVA program entitled "Papua New Guinea: Anthropology on Trial" has been eaten beyond repair by the VCR.
I am seeking an archival copy in order to still make the film available to students. We will abide by the restrictions limiting the item to in-library use only. Can anyone help us out with either a copy or is willing to make an interlibrary loan so we can make a copy? Lastly, since I am making an archival backup of a damaged item, is it permissible to also make a format change to DVD, or must we keep the format as VHS? Thank you for your assistance. ***************************** Marynelle Chew Head, Library Technical Services Joseph F.

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.
