"Reading in the Reel World" has some good tools. I've used the section using Atomic Café.

I would be using this with 1st year students as they are allowed to use a documentary as a source. So I'm looking for a decent, simple, straightforward 'form' with criteria for evaluating a doc. As usual, I'm time crunched, class is Monday eve - thought I'd check if anyone has a quick and dirty form. If not, no problem. Thanks so much, Lorraine Ohio U Alden Library 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.
