Overview:
The Virtual Library of Virginia (VIVA) is a publicly supported consortium of libraries at 71 public and private, non-profit higher education institutions in Virginia USA. Members include research universities, liberal arts colleges and 2-year colleges. VIVA has been in existence for over a dozen years. VIVA is guided by three fundamental principles: equitable access to information, cooperation across institutions and cost effective use of public resources. In 2006 VIVA licensed the rights in perpetuity for close to 400,000 students and faculty at Virginia colleges and universities to use more than 500 hours of video content from the US Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). The license with PBS requires that the video be streamed and that users authenticate with a user id and password.
