An instructor asks: "I am teaching an introductory course to communication studies undergraduates about major advances in communication and media technology. The course has an historical emphasis and I am hunting for a short film or documentary that introduces for non-technical specialists the general history of 19th and 20th cetury information processing and computing. I am especially interested in approaches that integrate social and cultural questions and analysis, though I realize that may be a tall order for one film!" Thanks, Jeff P. UMich

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.
