Im not familiar with the Internet Archives, is it similar to the National Archives?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:31pm
Mr. Pumpy:

The Internet Archive is possibly the greatest thing about the internet. I recently watched Shuji Terayama's short film Emperor Tomato Ketchup on the site before going to see Stereolab on their current tour. The film is weird and somewhat problematic, but it was amazing that I could watch it for free on the archive. As a result, I finally had additional insight into what is possibly the bands most famous album, being they named it after the film. I have read, watched, listened to so much on the Internet Archive over the past two decades. It is an amazing resource. I thank you, Brewster!

The charity system in this country was set up in the service of capitalism, so that private individuals have to volunteer their time and money to accomplish things the government should be doing, and does do in other countries. Our government is happy to give tax write offs so they can shirk their social responsibilities and push them on to others. It disgusts me to see us relying on charities to solve real problems.

Brewster is right about interlibrary loan. I use it about twice a month for books and DVDs. Who needs (shudder) amazon prime etc to watch movies? I have gotten TONS of odd and indy movies through ILL. FOR FREE. Also, know this: every time you borrow materials from your public library, you legitimize it to whoever controls its budget. THIS many people are borrowing THIS many items. In a data-driven culture, this is crucial. GO TO THE LIBRARY!

Books, Franco?

Small, nonprofit publishers are really as captured by the Big Tech nightmare as all the rest of us. It's really hard. Amazon sets the terms for so much of the market. The licensing deals for e-books are determined by the huge companies and not by the small publishers because they have no other way of *getting* books to the libraries. Or at least, no way that there are personnel to handle at any kind of scale. Even just delivering e-book files is so hard. The capital investment required means that it tends to be done only by the massive companies, and then small publishers have to use their infrastructure.

Mr. Pumpy:

@Wendy, I agree. However, as a film fanatic, I have come to appreciate some streaming services as they have titles I've been looking for which I can not find at the library. I do a bit of both. There is a great streaming site called Kanopy which bridges the two worlds. they are tied into the public library network and as long as you have a library card from one of the participating libraries you can search for and watch a good grip of content that comes from the system and watch 6 a month for free. Kanopy.com...it's amazing. Also, Metrograph does something similar based on their theater's content in NYC and their curated film festivals and lecture series.
