Jessica said: As for the 2nd part about using much larger if not entire works if they are not available to be licensed, this is where among others I think the judge went off the deep end and is likely to be struck down on appeal. I agree this is quite a radical argument. She implied that to say there is market damage the publisher has to show that it are actually making money from the material in question, i.e. that this material is on the market. I kind of like that, but it seems circular: if schools can copy limited amounts as fair use, then how can one develop a market to license those amounts? That is to say, fair use could replace whole segments of potential markets. It will be interesting to follow the case through the courts. Judy
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.
