Hi Laura, We have used library funds to license PPR for one-time screenings. In each of these cases, the film in question was screened at the library and was related to the semester's public programming theme. Thus, the funds came from a programming budget, rather than from collections money.
All best, Brian.

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.
