Off-Air Recording Back-Up Service
http://www.bufvc.ac.uk/services/offair.html
Have you ever missed recording a television programme you wanted to use in
teaching?
The BUFVC runs a television recording back-up service on behalf of
universities and colleges. Any educational institution holding an {HYPERLINK
"http://www.era.org.uk/"}Educational Recording Agency licence for off-air
recording can take advantage of this service by taking out BUFVC {HYPERLINK
"../aboutus/membership.html"}membership.
The membership allows staff in BUFVC member institutions to obtain multiple*
recordings each year of television programmes broadcast since 1st June 1998.
These are supplied on VHS videotape. The BUFVC is the only body in Britain
holding a letter of agreement with the Educational Recording Agency (ERA)
allowing the back-up recording of UK television programmes under Section 35
of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. We record a minimum of 16
hours of broadcasts each day from the five terrestrial channels and cover
BBC2 around the clock.
* Membership includes 12 recordings per year (further copies subject to
additional payment) For more information about the Off-Air Recording Back-Up
Service, contact Geoffrey O'Brien at the BUFVC Tel +44 (0)20 7393 1503 Fax
