Ok, I guessed I missed something ... This discussion is about all formats of classes, online as well as on campus and hybrid, right? I thought perhaps it only applied to online. In which case coming to the library to see a film would be "counter-operational" for the off campus students. My mistake.

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.
