I work with Lobster films and they are very helpful but it hard to see a
situation where would or could just put out a DVD. My guess is the
materials are not complete. If the prof wants to pop over to Paris and the
material can be viewed I am sure Lobster would help.

Thank for looking it up Andy

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.
