I refuse to put any entertainment movies or movies concerning books in my library because they do not use them properly. Most people know my stand and the law but if they choose to do something on my own, I am not condoning it.

How 'bout 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.
