Hi- You cannot off-air record and retain indefinitely. Contact the talk show and purchase it if they are selling it. That way it can be added to the collection legitimately or retained in archives. Perhaps they would even sell you a digital copy. Hopefully they will sell it cheaply. Or tell them how much you love their show and they may even give you just the clip you want.

Our university participated in a study that is going to be reported on during a 10 minute segment of the show. The administrator doesn’t have a specific use in mind for it, she just thinks it would be beneficial to have as a record. So, does this fall under Kastenmeier? I always had the impression this guideline covered more in class teaching related uses, plus the 10day/45 day rules don’t help me out much here. Is there a legally acceptable way for the library to record a segment of this program and keep it indefinitely? Possibly even restricted to in-house use?

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.
