Subject: POST-copies of DVDS
I think there are quiet a few discrepancies among the library community
about whether it is okay to make copies of DVDS. Here are some of the
postings I received:
It is perfectly legal to make what is referred to as an "archive copy."
I recall that you can make a copy of a DVD to use in place of the
original for that very reason. That way you always have the original and
there is no question of its validity.
You don't way where you are located. Does your school have access to any
of the streaming video databases?
These would be downloaded to your computer or server.
There would be no physical disk to destroy.
I wouldn't think so. A back-up copy of a computer program is permitted,
but not other media. Since replacement copies are readily available, I
doubt that you would get an exception, although you can ask.
Perhaps you ought to be looking at WHY these items are being destroyed
so quickly, and what can be done about it. I work closely with two of
our three HS SpecEd rooms, and they have never destroyed anything.
Without knowing your situation, I can't suggest ways of protecting
things, but such a loss rate would be unacceptable here.
We have DVD covers which protect the DVD but will permit it to be played
through the protective cover. We bought them from Gaylord. I don't know
if this will help you.
According to the following article, making copies isn't legal without
requesting a license to do so from the company which originally produced
the DVD

No, unfortunately this is not legal. The only medium that provides for
backup copies under copyright law is computer software. However, you can
sometimes negotiate archival rights with a producer. Archival rights
would give you the ability to do what you would like to do: make a
backup and make single replacements from that as each copy is destroyed.
That means you can never have more than one working copy of the DVD and
the original at any given time, but if the working copy is destroyed you
can regenerate it.
As long as you own the original, you are allowed to make 1 copy for use
and store the original.
