Slide Shows
We
need your help. Other forms of media
are quickly replacing slide film and projectors.
Please let us know whether you or your group would be more interested
in viewing shows on Video, CD’s or DVD. DVD
is the newest technology and has the advantage over CD’s of having the sound
stay in sync with the slides.
Also,
would you or your club, domestic or overseas, have an interest in buying our
slide shows for $10 if they were on a CD or a DVD?
See
booking form or let us know directly at the email address below.
How
to Book Slide Show programs
Print Out Order Form
Use this link (
Slide Show Order Form) to print out the slide show order form. It is in
Acrobat reader format (pdf file), and includes this entire page, including the
list of available slide shows. Furnish as many as three
meeting dates with up to five (5) program choices total.
Send it to the address shown in the form. Please include your email address, or include a self-addressed, stamped
#10 envelope. A confirmation will be
sent to you ASAP. Please expect
secondary choices in some few cases.
Fees
If the programs are
booked at least two months in advance, a payment of $5.00 per program must
accompany your request. If bookings are
made less than two months in advance, please add another $2.00 per program to
offset the costs of sending the programs by first class mail.
No bookings can be accepted less than 30 days in advance.
Programs are normally sent by Library Rate, about $1.75 currently, and
are insured for $50.00 for another $1.30. These
are, of course, subject to change. Programs
can be sent first class if appropriate postage and insurance fees are paid in
advance.
At this time, the
slide programs are intended for use by ATA Members as well as other interested
parties in the fifty states and Puerto Rico only. We
cannot honor foreign requests. However, please let us know if you or
your group, whether in the USA or overseas, would be interested in obtaining
these shows on a CD, DVD or Videotape. Enter this on the
survey at the bottom of the form. It is very important, as it
allows us to know whether we can justify placing our slide shows on newer
media.
Returning
Programs
Please complete the
questionnaire form included with each program and return it with all the
slides, script sheets and audio cassettes (if included) within a day following
the showing. Please use the enclosed mail label. Note that it is not a prepaid label.
You must pay the
library rate and the insurance fee for the value of $50.00.
Please keep in mind that the normal time it takes the package to be
sent within the continental US is ten days. Late
returns will be assessed a $3.00 penalty as some other club may miss getting
the program if you are late.
A
Few Friendly Suggestions
We will include a few
copies of the ATA membership forms with each program sent.
Please hand these out personally to others in your club who are not ATA
members. Remember that you can qualify
for a discount in your dues by getting new members to join the ATA. We are always looking for new programs as well as updating old
ones. Many of our programs are quire
old. We invite you to submit your
proposal and offer the finished program as a contribution to the ATA.
It is less expensive to make multiple copies than to copy slides later.
Show times vary, but
as a rule, allow approximately 30 - 60 seconds per slide.
Audiotape use may shorten programs. Thank
you for using the ATA Slide Program Service. Please address any questions to fwright2@rochester.rr.com
