Hello Videolib, For those who ask permission from rights holders to add captioning to video, I am curious as to how formal you document this. For instance, do you use a permission form? Do you ask for signatures, or is a simple "ok" in an email sufficient? Do you just pick up the phone and ask, then make note of it somewhere? If you do use some kind of form, would you mind sharing any wording, on or off list?
And on the flip side -- for those who are asked for permissions, what forms of inquiries do you typically receive (permission form, phone call, etc.)? Thanks! Kind regards, Mary Wahl -- Mary Wahl Digital Services Librarian California State University, Northridge [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
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.
