MOVIES & STUFF for Your Library.

On The Big Screen @ Your Library

from Penny Peck, San Leandro Public Library

Movie showings can be a fun way to serve a large audience, with relatively low overhead – just one staff person and a few volunteer ushers. You could even sell refreshments if you need the program to pay for itself. But you'll need a license show the films. One source for licenses is Movie Licensing USA (www.movlic.com). Movie Licensing USA may be able to license showings of films that you already have in your collection – you can show them using a video projector or a large-screen TV. You can also rent 16mm films directly from Swank (www.swank.com), which includes the license for showing the film.
