Yes but that is because you poor suckers need PPR for CLASSROOM USE
Studio=B9s here won=B9t go past a year because the license is for open public
showings
FYI your system really makes no sense to me as legally you can=B9t get these
rights on things
Like Chaplin, Fassbinder ( most) Ealing films etc though I gather some
companies are a little less than accurate in what they claim they can
license
But then that is not your problem

In Canada, we can lease cop= ies of "feature film" videos from the distributors with the PPR. &= nbsp;When the lease runs out, we must return the video to the distributor. <= BR> Usually the lease runs from= 3 - 5 years. A few years ago the prices for a medium-sized institutio= n were something like:
&nb= sp; $90 for a sin= gle performance
&nb= sp; $300 for a 3 = - 5 year lease + loan of an authorized copy
Obviously it was more econo= mical to lease those videos which fit the curriculum.
Now, we just buy blanket li= censes from the two main distributors, and get our commercial copies elsewhe= re (eg. the corner store, etc.)=20

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.
