Alabama Public Library
Service maintains and develops a collection of VHS
& DVD Video's that are available to circulate to any
public library in Alabama or to state government
employees for work-related needs. See the
online catalog.
The collection consists of programs on a wide variety of
topics suitable for all age groups. Some of the topics
that are available are history, biography, holiday
stories, animated stories, literature, opera, music,
do-it-yourself, animals, mysteries, sewing, childbirth,
computer science, crime prevention, religions, science,
children's stories, health issues, civil rights,
anthropology, folktales, documentaries, adolescence,
librarianship, and child development.
There are some
restrictions on use of the items. They may not be
shown where an admission fee is charged or where
donations are solicited. They may not be transmitted
over closed-circuit television or cable system without
written permission from the producer and copyright
holder. Videos in the APLS collection may not be copied
or reproduced in any way in whole or in part. To do so
is a violation of federal law.
