I wonder if anyone out there has some ideas about how filmmakers and distributors can better use technology to distribute interesting content to colleges? Of course streaming and downloading have changed the delivery mechanism, but I'm thinking about more out of the box ideas involving distribution of "learning modules" and other content derived from feature length films, or even modules created separately from the feature content. I know that FMG and Alexander Street offer some of this content. Does anyone have have thoughts on what works best now and what they would like to see in the future? Thanks, Peter Cohn Hillcrest Films/New Day Films

HI Gary. Hope you're well. I tried sending the below brilliant
note to videolib, but it seems to have gotten stuck somewhere along the way. I'm reluctant to send it again to avoid the embarrassment of double posting. Would appreciate any help. I'm off shooting a new documentary in the West Bank.... -------- Original Message --------

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.
