Description

For $30,000 in additional payment authority for Contract 148371, which provides Swank Movie Licensing for the Library Department, and to extend the term through Sept. 18, 2028. A five-year extension is recommended to continue supply of services, with distinct specifications and limited suppliers, which are critical for Library Department operations. Burton Barr Central Library and the 16 library branches offer a variety of programs to the community at least five days per week, and film screenings/discussions are a popular activity. To provide this entertainment legally in the public libraries, the contractor will provide the Library Department with an annual license to project the movies in a public setting without copyright infringement.
