We have the videos in the PBS series School: The Story of American Public Education, but one tape is broken, and the others are in bad shape. It is out of print, and I'd like to digitize it to preserve it. In this case I am thinking of trying to ILL it and make a preservation copy--the VAR guide mentions this. Also, it is available streaming via Films on Demand, which we are losing access to. Am I missing something? I'm new to this preservation copy business, and I want to make sure I've dotted my I's and crossed my t's.

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.
