According to guidelines and materials that I have on hand and distribute regularly to faculty who usually ignore them, this would be an infringement. Usually any duplication or public performance (showing to a group of people outside the household) is con- sidered an infringement, regardless of intent. However, networks do grant permission to non-profits from time to time and the best approach is to contact them directly, not through a local affiliate.

Also, for future reference, take a look at a small publication called _How to Acquire Legal Copies of Video Programs_ by Beda Johnson (1987), Pub. by Video Resources Enterprise, P.O. Box 191218, San Diego, CA 92119.
