[LIBRARYDIR] Streaming media quick survey

[McBurney, Melissa]

1.       Yes

2.       Naxos Music Library, Classical Music in Video,   Ambrose Video-8 BBC Shakespeare plays

3.       Naxos gets a fair bit of use. The other two are newer so we haven't seen much use yet but one instructor is now assigning out of CMV.

4.       These are all subscriptions and we haven't purchased the content. All of them were previewed and adopted by faculty. We haven't had any problems except for students some lockouts for Naxos. The instructor doesn't feel we need to increase the number of seats since these are students who waited until the last minute to do the assignment.

Subject: [LIBRARYDIR] Streaming media quick survey

We are beginning to look into streaming media to support some instructional programs at Edmonds CC and we will be meeting with our IT folks to talk about this, especially about ensuring that there would be sufficient bandwidth to enable students and faculty to access and view the streaming media.

1. Does your library subscribe to any streaming media services or have you purchased any individual streaming media titles?

2. If so, what kinds of streaming media have you acquired?

3. Has there been much usage of your streaming media collection?

4. Is there any advice you would offer, or wish you had received, about acquiring streaming media collections?


Thank you very much for any information you would be willing to share!
