Dear Rachel, Here are some vendors I regularly use. Several of them have educational, documentary or hard to find films, while some have more mainstream videos. My favorite with Films for the Humanities and Sciences as well as Films on Demand: Films Media Group http://ffh.films.com/ Action! Media https://www.actionlibrarymedia.com/ Criterion Pictures USA http://www.criterionpicusa.com/ Pyramid Media http://www.pyramidmedia.com/ Insight Media http://www.insight-media.com/ Best, Leigh Gates Director of Library Services Harrington College of Design 200 W.

I am temporarily doing acquisitions at MassArt and I find that I'm rather terrible at locating requested dvds. Does anyone have preferred sites they'd like to share? Or better yet, a website that lists or aggregates many reputable vendors? I'm looking primarily for obscure feature films, educational documentaries, and an occasional art-related film. Right now I am trying to locate a 7 part bbc-produced series called Redemption Song by Stuart Hall. http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/series/20062 According to worldcat, a dvd version was co-produced by Barraclough Carey Productions. In addition to going to the producers' websites, I typically try amazon, facets, microcinema. Where should I be looking? Thanks much. rachel resnik technical services librarian massachusetts college of art + design 621 huntington avenue boston, ma 02115 617-879-7115 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/join.html Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mail submissions to [log in to unmask] For information about joining ARLIS/NA see: http://www.arlisna.org/join.html Send administrative matters (file requests, subscription requests, etc) to [log in to unmask] ARLIS-L Archives and subscription maintenance: http://lsv.arlisna.org Questions may be addressed to list owner (Judy Dyki) at: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
