"Where can I get Indian films that aren't knock-offs?" 2. The professor is developing a course on images of Buddha in film. Any titles I can recommend to him? Many thanks, Lori Widzinski Head, Multimedia Collections and Services University Libraries University at Buffalo w...@buffalo.edu
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.
