OLOC’s Media Library
AVAILABLE for Rent or Purchase: OLOC DVD on Ageism
Ageism - Do They Get It?
An edited version of the CR session on ageism at the OLOC National
Gathering in 2008. For use with OLOC groups and the general public, the
DVD features several Old Lesbians sharing their experiences with
ageism and reflecting on its effect throughout society. Each OLOC
chapter received a free copy and OLOCers can purchase one for a special
purchase price of $5.00. Agencies, institutions and other groups, $15.00.
Both the edited and unedited versions are available for rental, too. See
the listing under 2008 below.
About the Library:
OLOC is proud to say that we have a fine and growing media collection available
for OLOC subscribers and supporters to borrow. We also have copies of DVDs
from the OLOC Herstory Collection available for purchase.
The Library is focused on Old Lesbians, though we do have a few selections that
feature young Lesbians and/or old women who may or may not be or have been
Lesbians but are of interest to Old Lesbians. We also have a few that include
men.
Each time the list is updated, it will be posted on our website, oloc.org, under
Resources. There will also be an announcement in the OLOC Reporter, our
quarterly newsletter.
OLOC Herstory Collection:
Our collection of CDs and DVDs that document the story of OLOC as an
organization is rapidly expanding. Our long-time videographer, Cristina Vegas, is
hard at work providing us with many edited and unedited DVDs of our OLOC
herstory. We have a whole section of them available for your viewing or listening
pleasure, with more to come. Copies are also available for purchase.
Donations accepted:
Check in with Susan before making any donations of media of any type, as our
storage space is limited. Also, please send us CDs or DVDs of appearances of
individual Lesbians connected with OLOC like the ones in our radio show section. A donation of money for purchase of new media is always welcome, too.
