OOPS it gets more fun. National Geographic Films folded in December. Their films were supposedly being handled by a company called Hyde Park Entertainment but their web site is pretty bare.

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.
