I met with Brad Fisk from ProQuest at ALA. He would be happy to set up a demo for the consortium. I'm happy to set up a WebEx for WACTCLC.
(My inclination would be to do a demo over the summer, with the knowledge that we might want to repeat it in the fall when more faculty are present.)

We have done a demo with AVON in the past, as well as a subject collection demo for Anthropology, but we have not moved on adding this to our streaming video options.

Ahniwa, I would love to hear your thoughts on FilmPlatform. I looked into them when I was looking for streaming video services.

Funny you should ask: we just had a demo with them yesterday, and we'll do a trial in August (too busy at the moment to deal with it). I think we would be very interested in a group subscription rate.

Thanks,
Amy

We just finished a 3-month trial of AVON and are purchasing it for the coming year to run alongside FOD, FilmPlatform, and a limited Kanopy implementation. It would be nice if we can just get one tool for all the video, but that's not the case in the current market.

AVON has gotten pretty good use during our trial and appears worth the price. We're purchasing through Orbis so that may help us out in the cost.

it is worth keeping in mind though that WSL's contract is with ProQuest and while I'm not sure about the previous contract, past contracts had language that libraries who buy additional ProQuest products should receive an additional discount.

Hey all,

I was just emailed by our ProQuest rep about Academic Video Online (AVON)<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Falexanderstreet.com%2Fproducts%2Facademic-video-online&data=01%7C01%7Cheath.hayden%40bellevuecollege.edu%7Ccd9d9f93eced4d145a8e08d7056d1d71%7Cf94c251c1347422eb3ea8ac56befd6cb%7C1&sdata=yhnmQ9W4KQZLpwG8DY7BOsQG5pBWQ4ztH6II4gWToqg%3D&reserved=0>, their online video service. There was a recent ALA thread about how some folks are using it over other platforms, like Kanopy, so LWTech will take a look and probably start a free trial in the near future.

Anyway, I asked the rep if there had been chats about system-wide bargaining and that isn't the case, but if there were 5-10 interested CTCs, a mini buying club deal could be entertained. So my question for this thread is, who is considering this product and has yet to start a subscription? For the system as a whole, what are your thoughts on the "mini buying club deal" as a concept-is it a worthwhile approach to databases? I will say that group purchasing came up during the recent Technical College Libraries Meeting last quarter as something various librarians would like to investigate.

And another question: for those of you already using AVON, how is it?
