I tell my teachers to make sure they have adequate lesson plans to cover the
use of that video.

YOU?
Good on you Bonnie - exactly what I thought too. I do hope Jeff's message
doesn't come back to bite
him.
When one of my teachers came for a video to keep the kids quiet last week
(we finished on Friday
16th) I just kept saying "It's against copyright law." I was ignored but I
was heard. I won't
refuse to lend something because I will not be the copyright police, but, at
least here, if someone
overrides your warning of a copyright breach, you don't get prosecuted if
they do. I'm sure most
staff members know my mantra by heart now, so I figure I've covered myself.
I noticed that others were avoiding having me prick their consciences by
bringing their own videos
in, thus circumventing the library, but at least they KNOW so it is their
responsibility which
standards they choose to set for the kids.
Merry Christmas
