VidLibs, Thanks everyone, for your input. Good points from Scott and Kanopy is a good idea for investigating rights. I agree Scott, it would be great if we had a NJVid kind of thing in Ohio. Something to look into….maybe for our Consortium? As always, I learn so much from all of you! Best, lorraine
From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf Of scott spicer Sent: Monday, August 31, 2015 4:16 PM To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu Subject: Re: [Videolib] Streaming and smaller films Hi Lorraine, I can appreciate your predicament and agree it is a significant challenge (even if you were insanely experienced working with producers and streaming). Likewise, in addition to other concerns, we currently do not have the technical nor process workflow infrastructure to host local licensed streaming content, so we are essentially left with educational media vendor hosted solutions when folks request streaming access. Per Jessica's suggestion as I recently experienced, there are several challenges to licensing content from a producer self-published Vimeo instance. Here are a handful that come to mind: 1. To my knowledge, Vimeo does not have shibboleth (or IP proxied) off campus authentication capability, so the purchasing institution would have to provide the direct link to the video, find a way to create a proxy link, and than find a way to hide a single shared user/pass behind a secure wall. Certainly doable, but not really scalable for multiple producer self-published titles. 2. Producer self-published videos generally do not come with MARC records. Local catalogers could certainly create new records for each title for discovery and access. Again, certainly doable, but not really scalable for multiple producer self-published titles. 3. At least at our institution every new streaming license platform we sign up with requires that the contract be vetted as an eResource. In essence, purchasing this single streaming title would have to be treated the same as if we were signing up for Kanopy or a larger service for the first time. Certainly doable, but not really scalable for multiple producer self-published titles. 4. Vimeo titles may be less likely to be captioned nor have some of the added platform functionality found elsewhere. This is not that much different than purchasing a license for local hosting, but it is one of the reasons that vendor hosted products are often purchased. I am not suggesting that licensing video from an educational media vendor hosted platform is necessarily the ideal (the cost and transition to a serials purchasing model is likely unsustainable), but the convenience is certainly nice assuming everything is working fine. What I am suggesting is that in addition to the local and vendor hosted solutions currently available, it would be awesome if a non-profit community owned platform (like NJVid) could serve the function as a national hosting, discovery, and standardized contract facilitating service, at least at a minimum for these kinds of single producer one-off types of arrangements - who may not be comfortable working with for profit vendors.

The first three are all Ohio based films/filmmakers/distributors - none of these provide any type of streaming services, nor do we have a server at Ohio U capable of uploading films. I'm wondering as a non-filmmaker/distributor - how difficult is it to ask for something like this? In the world of streaming services, these types of things are always a bit wonky, and if so, suggestions are welcome. I feel I am not well rounded enough on streaming to speak to how smaller filmmakers deal with this issue. Thank you all for your feedback. Best, lorraine wochna Ohio University * Devil's Oven - I can contact filmmaker and see if she has a streaming copy, but probably not! These are just little companies. * Cheshire Transaction - same deal, since it is Ohio based we might get something from the filmmakers. * Forest Returns - same thing, Ohio based and I could perhaps find the filmmakers/company. * Inhaling the Spore - and same thing, but they were distributed by Microcinema, which no longer exists. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment scrubbed and removed.

I suspect the filmmakers would be amenable to licensing streaming. I am not much of a techie but perhaps something like Vimeo would work? I think it is cheap or free. You can suggest they contact an educational streaming service but it is pretty unlikely they would be interested or at least interested enough to pay anything upfront. I think a lot depends on if the fillmmaker/distributor expects to have enough requests for streaming to make it worth their time to set something up or make a deal.

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.
