We did not subscribe to the database when it was first offered because =
we had already purchased most of the titles offered. Because we purchase =
programs for classroom use at faculty request, I feel reasonably assured =
that the programs offered will meet the needs you describe. Had we not =
already purchased most of these programs, I probably would have =
considered subscribing.
Good luck,

>I'm considering subscription to the PBS Video Database of America's =
History and Culture. At first look I thought it to be primarily a tool =
for K-12 teaching but the more I look at the Web site the more I begin =
to think it may be very useful to undergraduate programs at the =
University of Minnesota. It seems to be unique and so extensive that it =
might be of interest to the College of Education, here, to use as =
exemplary demonstration of the integration traditional video classroom =
resources with Web technology. There are a variety of other curricula at =
Minnesota that might find it useful to search a database for course =
germane image sequences from PBS programming. Do any of you on this list =
subscribe to the database? If so I'd be interested to learn your opinion =
about it as a library resource and teaching tool.=20
